I know someone will argue with this a hundred ways, but I planningon mounting my rei hithchiker backpack to my rack. (Atleast it wil be off of my back and lower.) But I don't have a rack.
There are so many racks to choose from. I am thinking of an expedition rack because there ill be a slightly wider load on top. whtat do you all think? HEre are the ones that I was looking at. which racks did you guys buy? Do you htink I need a touring rack or will a nornmal rack be okay? Should I really be concerned with the weight of a rack? (see a million questions)
this trek one is the most expensive but it looks nice.

this ones sounds like it is quite reputable but it is more spendy and doesn't have a "top" on it.
