I just looked over the specs for this one again, and I noticed a couple of things that I hadn't noticed before. It also has TRP HYLEX hydraulic disc brakes, front and rear through-axles, and Bontrager Duster Elite tubeless ready MTB wheels. As far as the front rack goes, it looks like it's been designed with some future Bontrager Interchange products in mind. I wouldn't be too surprised if they came out with a new line of "adventure bags," or something.
Yeah, I meant to say that but was fielding phone calls while it typed. I wonder if the original design intent was to have a triple or if it was something a graphic artist threw on from a library of parts.
