]Well you seem to get my point.[/color] I don’t doubt that the rack is good enough for most applications. So why did Axiom inflate the weight rating to such stupidly high levels? No one…no one!…is going to carry that much of a load on the rear rack of a bicycle. Like I said above, it’s the equivalent of 2 bags of cement.
As I’ve said before, I suspect that someone got the unit wrong and Axiom just stuck with the claimed capacity even though it is a stupid claim. 70 lbs (which is a bit too high in my opinion) is perfectly adequate for a load limitation. If you are carrying more than that on a rear rack, you are doing something wrong anyway.
Well if I hadnt gotten your point the first 4 times you ranted, now that you ranted for a 5th time even after saying I seem to get your point, I now get your point.
The horse was beaten to a pulp days ago- put the stick down. I havent been actually disagreeing with you, Ive just been poking you because you were hyperfocused on something that doesnt even matter to this thread.
