  • Anyone with experience with old man mountain racks? I need to put together a new commuter for my partner and I'm leaning toward a big brand hybrid (trek/canyon/merida kind of thing) instead of boutique Taiwanese steel, mostly for weight reasons.
    Looks like they mount to special thru axles and you can zip tie them to a (sturdy) carbon fork.
    Id also welcome any other ideas that come to mind for a lightweight hybrid with guards and a front rack?

  • zip tie them to a (sturdy) carbon fork

    Uhhhh

    Here's a new bike, new rack and some zip ties. Seems ridiculous. There are endless lightweight upright options that can take a rack and fenders.

    Spesh sirrus for example?
