My BG racks are approaching 25 years old, and still fine..
BLT Kit includes the similar racks, they are made in house by Bruce.
frame is priced lower by doing like all the others that you listed,
specs sent to Taiwan based contract factories.
the Soma Saga anticipated and fit a solid kickstand mount on the frame ..
a good thing..
For your use a Redline conquest classic is a good pick, too, a disc-commuter of steel,
you can tour on, some.....
