Hello bikepacking friends,
I need your help.
Last year I bought a Sklar Super Something and I want to install a rear rack.
I just bought the racktime basic 2.0 tour for 28’‘ and 29‘‘ but they just dont fit.
Maybe somebody has the same bike and already a good rack.
It doesnt have to be light and I know that Sklar just dropped a rack but I think they will be really expensive.
Thank you ❤️

sklar just dropped a rack that works specifically for their bikes. it’s worth avoiding the hassle and worry of using any other rack. If money is an issue, you can purchase it with payment plan which is what i did 🙂
Is it too short/tall? Can you post a pic of it as close to installed as you can get it? I’ve made stainless adapters to reposition my Axiom rack lower and level.

The Ortlieb Quick Rack is very adaptable to different frames, and IMO the ability to quickly install and remove is a really nice advantage vs. more permanently installed racks.
However, it is $120 MSRP, which is only $20 cheaper than the Sklar Lightweight rack, not sure if that makes a difference in your decision.
I saw the Sklar rack in person at Adam’s workshop and it’s sweet. Get that one.
