Weight capacity is dependent on your rack. That axiom rack in my photo has a supposed capacity of 75 kilos! I highly highly doubt that it could take that much, and if it could would you want that much weight on just the rear end? Typically rear racks have a weight capacity of 50lbs. Higher end racks, such as bruce gordon racks, could probably take more.

Thanks
