I bikepacked the Queen's Ransom in Arizona 240 mile 17,000 ft of elevation gain in 5 days this week. I had my ortlieb pannier gravel packs on the sides but it was just too much for the technical trails. so I ditched a bunch of gear and while I was pondering how to attach one of the panniers I came up with this idea. it was solid and I am not kidding, it worked fantastic. I even got compliments. I was able to use my dropper post. The space was plenty enough for all of my sleep gear. Highly recommend.

  1. Just bought an Alpkit Gourdon bag for that bit of the rack this week in case i needed to hike a bike and it was too heavy. Like this idea though. Also use two Blackburn fork racks on the sides as fit perfectly with the. Moveable bolts on the quick rack

  2. I’M more fascinated by the seemingly wifi rear rack you got going??? Is it just attached near the dropouts??

    Damn, I wouldn’t have thought of that. I have both and will have to try that.
