Hey gang - thought someone might know the quick answer to this...

I am using the Topeak MTX bag system on my commuter bike and love it - would like to be able to use it when I'm out on the tandem as well...I have a Santana w the 160 rear spacing...

I see on the Topeak website that they have disc compatible racks available, but I don't see anything that might be Santana specific to address the spacing issue.

Anyone know if they make such a thing or if there is a workaround of some type?

It isn't hard at all to spread the legs of the rack to fit Santanas' 160mm spacing.

FWIW I am not sure you need a disc specific rack for the Santana.
