Racks

racks

We stock a range of luggage racks from a couple of different manufacturers. They’re all quality items. The best rack for you depends on your bike and what you want to carry.

omm tubus

We stock specialist racks from Old Man Mountain (made in the USA for suspension and non-eyelet frames) and Tubus (strong, light, steel, German). Click those links for models, prices and information.

For almost 99% of uses on standard bikes, for our money, nothing beats the Topeak Supertourist, as pictured above. We sell at least 80 or 100 of these racks each year, and since we moved to Newtown, we’ve never had to warranty replace one for any reason. People break axles before they break these racks. A basic Supertourist is $75.

They’re better than other, cheaper racks because they use a thicker diameter tube (that’s still compatible with every bag out there) and have extra strong welds at the lower joins (where most racks break). Topeak make a range of nifty bags and baskets that slide easily on and off the top.
