What lowrider racks fit a Raleigh Sojourn? I don't think my Blackburn rack is going to fit.

A rack with a Hoop.. Bruce Gordon has the best.

Tubus has several ,
the Blackburn with a hoop have long been copied by other producers..

Is your rack made just to use on thru the fork boss forks ? IE Hoopless?

I dont see braze on in the middle of the fork.

Bruces rack is 1 piece, P clips around the fork blade + the bolts thru the dropout eyelet
will be fine..
There are clamp on pieces Tubus offers to fit, for the purpose .

and the U bolt mounting system that comes with the Blackburn Hoop racks work well,
if properly installed..
(putting them together wrong is pretty common, too still seems to work.. )
