I just picked up a slightly used two year old (58cm) Co-Motion Americano. It has a Tubus Tara front rack and the PO had difficulty making the front rack fit correctly. In fact, he had to remove the quick release hub and replace it with a screw in hub. I want the bike to have a quick release hub AND a Tubus Tara front rack.
The problem he found (and in fact the way the bike sits today) is that there's not adequate clearance around the Tubus rack for the quick release skewer.
Anyone help me figure out how to make this work? Was the rack incorrectly installed? Can you look at your Americano/Tubus/Quick Release setup and tell me how yours differs from mine?
Many thanks,
Bob
