Sci-Fi, the link I posted is actually a bit different on than the one on Electra's website. I'm not sure if the e-bay one is a knock-off or if it's an older design, but I like the lines of it better. I'll keep the Delta's in mind. Chrome's my first preference, but I could live with silver.

BAH, while the xtra cycles are intriguing it's a little more than I'd need. Plus, it would squash my plan to load the bike onto the bus for the remainder of my commute.

Georgiaboy, Have you used baskets? I thought about using a front basket for my backpack. I was afraid of how this would effect handling though. It seems as if turning would be considerably impaired.

I Like To Bike, thanks for the warning. That was kind of my suspicion. I don't plan on carrying three cases of beer any time soon, but you never know when that occasion will arise What style was the replacement rack?
