[RBW] WTB Nitto M1 Mark Rack

2018-02-28 Thread Lum Gim Fong
You can also get a Nitto M18. Looks the same but without the front tang. And has a much higher load weight safety rating than a Mark’s. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails

The M18 is rated at a 17lb load the Marks is only 4 lbs (2 struts), 6 (with 4 struts). But they look like the same rack structurally, except the Marks has the tab in the front and an extra set of eyelets. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners

Yes Bill. That’s the 8kg link that is currently posted by Nitto, and the one I saw when researching which rack to get about 4 years ago. What I’d really like is a canti- rivbike so I can get a solid tang rack and not a slider like the M series. -- You received this message because you are subs
