I just bought one specifically for winter bike commuting in Alaska and cannot find a rack for the XS frame that will fit. They are all either too short or too narrow to accommodate the tires or they are not short enough to accommodate my small bike frame. This is frustrating as I now have no way to use my panniers on my commuter bike. Please e-mail me if you would be interested in making another rack. I would be willing to pay for supplies and your time, of course. amber.jm.hahn@gmail.comAlaskaAmberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16947935430009310702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094176709529713758.post-20427997910357368862012-05-14T13:36:15.696-07:002012-05-14T13:36:15.696-07:00Nah mate, that's a brilliant looking rack... t...Nah mate, that's a brilliant looking rack... there's loads of neat features that would behove the main stream manufacturers of racks to follow.<br />Like the way the panniers are lower down to the centre of gravity, the twin rear lamp mounts, the smooth blending of the tubes, and the fact that you can simply unbolt the top of the rack if you don't need it... or even replace it with something wider should the need arise.. hauling crates of beer and pizzas and things.<br />Its all good, mate. And looks totally beautiful to my eyes.<br /><br />cycle trampAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094176709529713758.post-71178682007396670262012-05-13T10:45:07.124-07:002012-05-13T10:45:07.124-07:00Amazing and inspiring work, Pat.

But yeah, that ...Wade, quite the picture you paint. But yeah, that makes some sense. To continue your analogy, given your unique and vivid perspective on life, you may be one hamster running on a wheel, but I envision that you are running on the outside of the wheel. I compliment you, sir.<br /><br />Toni, thanks. The eye of the beholder, I guess. That's great news on the DSLR! As much as you enjoy shooting pictures, I think you'll have a blast with it. Can't wait to see some images. I'm super happy with the bag, it's <a href="http://www.topeak.com/products/Bags/TourGuideHandlebarBag" rel="nofollow">this one</a>. It comes with a rain cover that stashes in the front pocket and I carry my P&S in one of the side pockets.<br /><br />Alex, my idea was that I won't need a rear deck for anything except full on touring. In general, I'm going with a modular them for the racks on this bike, just to make it as adaptable as possible to different uses. The aluminum decks are a bit of work and weight, but I like the functionality of a more solid deck - I always seem to be hauling something that wants to slip through traditional crossbars.<br /><br />Thanks, Vik. I went through quite the internal struggle as to whether I should go the Porcelain Rocket or Revelate style route for load carrying. In the end, I guess I couldn't justify the investment at this time, since I don't absolutely need that style bag for this tour. Those sure are some sweet bags though.Pat Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348722701872187949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094176709529713758.post-26642890191679681332012-05-12T09:36:10.611-07:002012-05-12T09:36:10.611-07:00Great looking rack!

Pat, ...Yeah that was me, I forgot to leave my name. Pat, you are so tragically awesome and awesomely tragic I don't know if the term can even convey the state you are in anymore. If the rest of our brains are operating like one hamster running on a wheel, yours is atleast 2 hamsters running on the same wheel in opposite directions, riding slightly larger hamsters while wearing little medieval armour and jousting. Hope that makes sense. Man you are ...awesome and tragic. WadeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
