>>890810Yeah I've got eyelets on my seatstays, this guy had some weird contraption that hooked to a single mounting point that I assume was a brake caliper mount (didn't look too close).
But what got me about it was that I'd assume the real load bearing point is down by the axle (or the eyelets down there). It's the one in this picture. The one I'm looking at is similar but it's the "disc" version which has two struts for the seat stays instead of one in the center.
So I'm assuming that there's a stability issue with these, and maybe I should spend 3x as much for a Tubus Disco.
>>890814Oh yeah I'm definitely looking for a real rack, just trying to decide between spending $50 and $150. It's not going to kill me to spend $150 but I don't know if it's just bike bling for rando fashionistas (see: carradice, leather bar tape, etc), or if there's a real performance difference.
