Yea it aint easy. IMO the surly racks are a bit busy too look at. Also kinda seems like an over engineered adjustment/mounting system. The 24pack can get away with it because of its size and machoness, but its almost overkill on the 8pack, considering its more elegant size. But then again, stiffness and weight and size are pretty important boxes, which the 8pack ticks.
Thanks! @togas and @MisterMikkel :)
Heres what she got. Shes mega stoked to say the least! (there was also a pair of Fjällräven pants and a bag of Haribo Matador mix in the frame bag)
Trimming cables and dialing in fit is the next step. Then of course a good bike camping trip :D

Sorry if I've missed it but whats the rear rack/saddlebag thing? Bike looks great. On the topic of trying to trim cables without bleed, pretty difficult to get right. You'll need new olives and barbs anyway (these should be supplied with the brakes if you bought new). I would just buy the bleed stuff as youll need it eventually

Looks amazing!
Just wondering with the pizza rack - do you think you could attach it in a way that would still allow you to use a 3-bolt anything cage or even a 2-bolt bottle cage?
Otherwise, looks very clean and sits at a perfect height. I've got the 29er (L) Piolet and am debating a front rack for it.

I'm currently debating a pizza rack vs a surly 8 pack. 8 pack but cant do panniers, but is much stiffer and smaller.
