Overview
This Rack
The Tubus Logo Evo is the perfect rack for bike setups requiring extra heel clearance (Short Chain stays / Large Size Shoes). The Logos utilize a lower mounting point which improves center of gravity and allows for better loading on the top of the rack and better riding stability.
The Logo Evo’s design at the same time allows for bags to mount further back, thereby permitting extra heel clearance. Variable attachment system makes an easy installation on nearly all frame geometries.
Consider mounting a set of Ortlieb or other panniers to your Logo for the extra cargo room you’ve been looking for.

- A variety of factors can lead to heel clearance issues including: foot size, chainstay length, large heels on shoes, pannier size and pannier mounting style.
- Please note that excessive heel clearance is unnecessary. Optimal pannier placement for weight distribution is as forward as possible while still allowing adequate heel clearance.
- The lower mounting position for your panniers offers a lower center of gravity. On some bikes, this can be lead to a noticeable improvement in bike handling.
- Lower panniers can make it easier to swing your leg up and over the load when getting on and off the bike.
- The lower mounting position for your panniers leaves the top platform more accessible for mounting rack top bags to.
- If you have heel clearance issues, you can place your pannier further back.
- Stiff mounting bracket for a tail light.
- Mounting holes are 50mm apart for standard rack mounted rear lights such as those by Busch & Muller.
