for all its mooted versatility (bottle bosses, rack mounts etc)... why does the arkose not have mounts on the front fork for a front rack ? seems like a weird omission, since most adventure bikes of this type tend to have them
I assume it's a cost thing.
The forks are stock they buy in. The bike overall is rocking a lot of features for the price. Compromise has to come somewhere I guess.
