In Red Deer, Alberta Canada we had a bike packing summit at our local shop Mud Sweat and Gears to talk about planning group rides and talk about bike gear.
A local company has started up in our little city with some new ideas. Hard mount rack systems with very simple mounting. I was pretty stoked after seeing the racks and thought I would share some photos.
A front rack system design for securing a dry bag system to with adequate clearance for the fork and adequate space for those brake and shifter cables to breath, no rubbing the headtube paint off, no cables binding. Also they have two bottle mounts internally on the front rack mount.
They had two really unique fork mount systems. One designed for mounting two water bottles too and one designed for a small dry bag. It can secure to either the fork or the 3 fork boss mount.
A rear rack, one mounting point-two bolts - not complicated. You can retain your dropper post! They are coming out with a race version that will be a bit lighter then the version I have pictures of too.
I am sure they would appreciate any impressions or general ideas on the rack, going to try and get my hands on an early version to test them out and hopefully use them in for the BC epic 100 bike race.
