Avoid blb racks, we had loads at work and every single one needed "manipulation" to make work / fit....
Omnium one seems great though I love my pizza rack.
Or I use a chopped rear rack as a front rack and it's also perfect!

Ooooh rear rack is a shout to be fair... the ultralite doesn't have a bendable strut/mounting for the fork crown but might ponder that.
I reckon though to be fair I'll go for the pizza rack, it's tried and trusted, and could see potential worms about getting the rack to sit flush with the strut design. Will see though, not gonna be a this month purchase :,< will simply cope with the 25l backpack for now

Picked up this lovely little thing yesterday - officially achieved my dream bike!
I'm going down to one bike to do-it-all (how many times have I said that now...) so I'm looking at front and rear racks.
Had a tortec ultralite rear to hand, but sadly it won't fit around the disc caliper.
Now looking at options and not looking to spend a ton of £££ - Tortec Transalp Disc seems like a great option (especially given I'll usually be using either my carradice rack pack or panniers when I get a pair of my own, so I'll be able to do both at the same time, if I ever ? need to ?) - anyone had luck getting one on a Straggler?
Front rack wise, most likely going to go for an Omnium, although BLB T rack and Spesh Pizza rack or also contenders.
Gonna keep peepers out on the bay for deals, but saw an M18 go for £111 so f#ck knows if there's even deals to be had anymore on there!
