Overview
Strong, Low-Profile Design
A low-profile rack without compromise. To mount, you’ll need lower mounting eyelets plus internal and external mid-fork eyelets. Not every bicycle is setup
One great advantage of this rack is that it will not have any restrictions on your tire size as it doesn’t loop over the tires like many other front racks.
The distance between the upper and lower brazed-on fork fittings should be 165mm (+/- 3mm).
Note: When using panniers with Ortlieb’s Lower QL-1 hooks such as the Ortlieb Roller Classic Panniers with Tubus Tara or Duo racks, adjust the pannier’s lower mounting hook. After removing the hook, rotate the grommet 90 degrees adding an additional 5 mm of width for wider rack diameters.
Features
- Fillet brazed chromoly steel tubing construction is lightweight and sturdy.
- Extra mounting tabs allow for directly mounting a fender to the rack.
