Bruce Gordon Tubular Cro-Moly LowRider Front Rack. Used, $250.00/each
“Our Front Lowriding Rack is made with the same aircraft grade tubing as our rear rack. Its unique one-piece construction incorporates a number of thoughtful design touches that add to the function of any touring bike. All rack joints are machine mitered, more precisely than most bicycle frames. A slight outward cant at the bottom of the rack not only facilitates wheel removal, but guarantees that your pack can't chafe on the quick release skewer or from axle. And the superior strength and rigidity afforded by its chrome-moly tubing means more of your energy can be spent covering miles, not fighting to control the weight of your loaded bicycle. You can ride farther, easier and more securely, on or off the road.” - Bruce Gordon
Features: Machine mitered joints, separate fender mounting eyelets, 4130 chrome-moly tubing (tensile strength 95,000 psi, more than twice that of 6061 T aluminum).
Area of pannier support: 81 square inches. Fully adjustable to fit almost any bike. TIG welded by hand.

The Jandd Low Front utilizes a uniquely simple design comprised of a single 3/8" 6061 aluminum rod that forms the entire main frame of the rack. Reverse inverted attachment armatures are double-welded at their bases for easy mounting to the lower fork eyelets. Slotted mounting tracks near the top of the rack allow for easy adaptation to almost any fork configuration. All stress points are double-welded.

Old Man Mountain Red Rock Rear Rack. New, $125.00/each
Part# 06358
“The Red Rock is Tough Stuff. Now the OMM Red Rock Rear Rack is one tough work horse. The long top shelf offers plenty of space for a hefty set of rear panniers and the load stop up front lets you pile on the gear. This rack mounts using the dropout eyelets and brake bosses. For bikes with no brake bosses or road caliper brakes, the band clamp accessories can attach the rack to your seat stays; or for bikes with disc brakes, a Disc Adapter Kit is available for a perfect fit.”
