Yeah, I noticed that too. It seems like they weren't on for a while.
But they are listed as "discontinued". Also, the Platrack SlickerSack
is no longer on the site. All this makes me think that the new rack
Grant hinted at a few blug post ago will be similar.

I still see the Platrack on the Riv site, so it looks like they might have
'em for now. Also noticed that Ben's in Milwaukee carries them too. Same
for the long struts. And thanks Brian, for the inspiration!
And for all you other rack-hackers out there, there's a group for that on
Flickr: *ht
Thanks! I'll keep you posted.
I need to bend the struts for my Nitto Top Rack. I'll probably do that
first. Because of wear the braze-ons are on my Hilsen the rack sits
much higher than needed.

I got an extra set of 42cm struts just in case. Didn't need 'em. You are
welcome to them if you try it and it doesn't work out.

I was wondering if something like that would work. I think I'd try it
if I knew I could get extra struts from RBW. It doesn't appear they're
even selling the Plat Rack anymore. Hopefully they're just out of it.
I think it's a good design. I know there was some mention of Mark
working on a new front

That's great! I wish my Hilsen had mid fork braze-ons. I was thinking
this morning that maybe next year I'll get the Hilsen repainted and
some braze-ons like that added.

I've had a number of Silver bikes over the years - still have three. They
look good with silver/black components, and you can jazz things up with
bar-tape, cable housing, bags etc. I'm working on a drop-bar variant for
the Bombad
