• I'm pretty sure it does take one as they mention it several times

    Aluminium frame and carbon fork with rack / guard mounts

    Camino Al delivers the same geometry of our titanium Camino constructed from 6061 grade aluminium with a carbon fork with full pannier rack and mudguard mounts.

    Carbon fork: Lightweight, strong and responsive with an alloy steerer; fully kitted out with pannier and mudguard mounts.

    But definitely let us know what they say!

    Edit: the reason I personally am so bothered about front racks is that I want the bike to work as a do-anything bike; conventional touring, bikepacking, gravel rides, road rides. Front rack or lowriders would be really handy for that.

  • It's going to be a road bike first and foremost, gravel bike second, touring bike distant third. As long as it can take the weight of my touring gear for one week out of the year why would I not want carbon?

    And anyway, it's a £300 frame, it's not like I'm going to keep it for 20 years.
