I can’t figure out how to attach the mounting arm. Seems like the rack is too close to the frame?

You got to bend those to fit.

Where do the arms attach to the rack ? The arms can be bent as needed to fit.

Those arms are meant to be bent and twisted to fit, you bend them yourself to line up with your attachment points.

Which rack model is this? I see it’s Topeak.
Some models have height adjustment the the bottom. If yours has try to lower it, then place the mountain arms at the mounting holes then bend the metal to fit. This is why it’s flat, it’s meant to be bent into place. I found this: [https://youtu.be/fov9ZGQx7Cg?si=ddBfsqWVr0eey-XT](https://youtu.be/fov9ZGQx7Cg?si=ddBfsqWVr0eey-XT)

The stays will bend once you bolt it on. However just make sure the rack is level before bolting. You will probably need to loosen the bolts attaching the stays to the rack.

Has anyone else that owns that Camelbak water bottle noticed how annoying it is? Mine is constantly making noise as the water evaporates and the pressure inside changes, which causes air to escape through the valve. I can’t even leave it in my room all night because it’s constantly popping and stuff
