  • Could someone please recommend a front rack for this old Super Galaxy? Can I use pannier bags meant for the rear? Ortlieb Classics. I like the idea of front pannier bags and then a smaller bag strapped to the top of the rear rack. I'm quite heavy so thought it might be good to take some weight off the rear wheel.

  • you can mount a rear rack on the front. if you're handy with fabbing up a way to fix it to the brake hole.
    the legs/struts need to be squeezed in gently to fit the narrower width of the fork ends without cracking.

    i was contemplating taking it but its too small. looks nice for panniers or smaller stuffs. cheap too!

  • A Blackburn Outpost will mount easily to your dropouts and brakes.

    As for bags, rear Ortliebs on the front is what I do. Bit bulky but I figured that if I was investing in Ortliebs I didn't want to be short of space.
