Note the rear most roller is above the hub axle line.
And I presume its not really there to carry Anything , just mount that extra set of wheels.
shares the brake fixtures and mudguard to make adjustment awkward,it adds weight. Etc

The attachment of the rack to a Brommie is one of the areas that make me frustrated with bromptoms;
Adding a less functional, fabricated , expensive, sp skelton rack is a dead parrot.
Removing rear rack and mudguard make the bike look more focused as a performance orientated bike. It also saves a good deal of weight and allows easier access to rear brake etc. I like the fact that it is still practical for commuting by adding the front bag.
I would like to know if any one uses the front wheel to wheel a brommie?
