This has mounts halfway up the legs

but with a-to-c 390mm/45mm probably not road geometry
or this one:

400mm/44mmI think the flat top fork looks good together with the old pompino/pompetamine wishbone rear...

Being a mad perfectionist lunatic I don't feel well about making some kind of On-One / X-check mongrel.
You realise it's just switching forks, a pretty common thing to do. 2 of the pomps I posted have different forks, I don't think you could say either look like mongrels. Just respray the whole lot.
It's also worth pointing out that if you have a fork with canti mounts then you can find racks that mount to those.
Being a mad perfectionist lunatic I don't feel well about making some kind of On-One / X-check mongrel. I am looking to have mudguards on this thing, and I feel equally weird about attaching both rack and mudguards to the same eyelet.
Actually the X-Check has no front rack eyelet either - just a mudguard eyelet! O lawd!
