To that we say NO WAY! We threw 80's blueprints (that everyone else copies) out the window and designed a rack that solves heel clearance and compatibility problems that arise when trying to install traditional racks on road bikes. Install a Streamliner® rack on almost any bicycle, and let your bike do the work for you.Construction:
- Hand-welded, tubular 10.2mm 6061 T6 aluminum.
- High-strength steel modular feet.
- Durable anti-scratch coating.
Mounting System:
- Feet mount to a standard quick-release skewer* (not included) or to traditional eyelets.
- Center bracket can be attached to a brake caliper or fender bridge.
- Optional (171356-17) 'Nutted Axle Kit' can be used to fit bikes with bolted axles. *See axiomgear.com for Thru-axle solutions.
Features:
- Exceptional torsional stiffness.
- Suitable for use with all frame materials, including carbon fibre.
- Attaches to a standard quick-release skewer or to traditional dropout eyelets.
- Streamlined profile improves aerodynamics and greatly improves handling by keeping your load closer to center.
- Modular sweepback feet maximize heel clearance and accommodate disc brakes without adding needless extra width that otherwise affects handling.
- Stainless steel center bracket can be DIY bent to accommodate a wide variety of frame designs.
- Double welded for extra strength and long-term durability.
- Rear bolts on feet can be used as fender mounts.
- Reflector/light mount, Frame bolts included
- Lifetime warranty.
