Howdy all,

Thanks for the updates, thoughts, and recommendations. At least I know I'm not alone

Something I've found, which I'm currently investigating and wanted to throw out.
I've found these:
Axiom Odysée, 382mm x 145mm Platform Area
Axiom Journey, 390mm x 150mm Platform Area

Now, since Axiom is a Canadian company, it took some digging to find an internet reseller in the US that carries the racks, in addition to their bags. Found one out of San Diego, CA:
AirBomb

Now, 390mm = 15.35 inches, which is an additional 2 inches off of the Performance Transit Rack I now have. Once more, according to AirBomb, these suckers only cost ~$20. Am I missing something?

The other threads I've found here generally speak well of Axiom. For instance:
Axiom Journey Rear Rack- It's Cheap But Is It Of Decent Quality?

Wondering if there is any experience out there with either of these models from a heel strike persepective. Seems to be fairly well regarded in Canada.
I think my LBS has these, but they are closed today, so I'll have to check tomorrow.

Anyway, just wanted to throw all that out there for the collective good.

Regards,

Sam
