It's easy enough for you to check first.
Am I missing something? I assume the OP was looking for a rack that doesn't need a fork boss, which neither the Axiom nor the Blackburn need. EDIT: I meant the _second_ Blackburn linked, the Low Rider Standard, not the Custom!
In any event, I spent some time this morning looking into the very same issue; I have a Cross Check and although I can get the Axiom cheaply, I'm worried about it's integrity w.r.t. twisting. For an extra few bucks (or pounds in this case), I think the Blackburn is the way to go.
