• If only there were some proven way of securing bags either side of the back wheel, maybe it could even provide a platform above the back wheel so one wouldn’t need a swinging load on the seat post.

  • Lol, yes I do sound like an old cunt, I do apologise. I just don’t really get why you’d have a frame with custom mounts for a custom rack which doesn’t look as durable as it could be and requires custom bags, all to the end of having a purpose made bike-packing rig which presumably will spend most of its life loaded up, so where’s the advantage with non-permanent load mountings?
