Are there any issues with having a front rack mounted like this? I need to clear the canti straddle cable and the only way I can easily do that is to have a long spaced out bolt so the rack tab attaches in front of the straddle cable. In the photo it’s a 70mm bolt and the straddle and rack tab are just touching. I’ve ordered an 80mm bolt so it clears.
Am I putting too much leverage anywhere? Risk of fiery death?
