Just a post of my favorite bike. I feel like it’s a good friend! Also, anybody else simply attach their backpack on the rear rack with a couple ropes and tie the end of the straps out of the way (around the rack)?

Just in case you wanted to know, it's the Alton RCT Endo 16, and it came with a large rear rack. I changed the handlebar to swept back ones, pedals, comfort grips, spring saddle, and suspension seat post, and added fenders.
