Has anyone here mounted the Tailfin fast release dropouts to a OMM rack? If so, did the spacing/distance between the two bolts that attaches the droupouts to the rack fit each other?

I have an older OMM Colds Springs (front) rack with a nice solid and wide platform for strapping down a lightweight backpack or drybag, but, when using the newer OMM dropouts to mount the rack on the OMM axles the rack legs are too narrow to fit on the 148mm rear axles without bending the tubes.

I do have the OMM Divide rack, however it is too heavy and overbuilt for my use.

And, while a beautiful rack, the Tailfin Aeropack can’t be worn as a backpack for hike a bike’s on gnarly terrain.
