Touring rack for Tern Verge P20 (asymmetrical eyelets/bosses!)
Hello!
It's so strange for Tern to have the top eyelets/bosses for the back rack brazed on asymmetrically on my P20! They are actually about 0.5 inches offset from each other. I'm looking for a heavy-duty touring back rack so will need a mounting system that allows for such customization. Any recommendations and experience to share?
Thanks!

Perhaps this is a defect, unless it is offset by design. If this is a new bike, and the asymmetry is a problem for you, I would consult the dealer regarding warranty repair/frame replacement. A couple of well-lit, clearly-focused photos would be helpful.

We sell Tern bikes in the shop I work at. I'm not aware of the asymmetry that you refer to. Tern sell a rack designed for their 20" bikes, see here:
Traveller? Rack (Rear) | Tern Folding Bike and Folding Bicycle Accessories | Switzerland
It doesn't appear to be asymmetric.
