safety straps
Backup tying the rack back to the head tube or bars in case the fork top bolt comes adrift eg from vibration—worst failure mode is it hinging forwards from the lower fork mounts and fouling the wheel, then you are immediately over the top
which is what happened to be before, I wouldnt recommend it to anyone.
