I have the Extreme Front Rack and like it because of the top shelf. I don't like to have a handle bar bag when touring so I mount my handle bar bag on the top of the front rack. It is a little heavy and is a little expensive but it works well for me for touring. I have seen in other forums issues with Jandd racks not mounting centered but mine is ok. The only mounting problems that I had on my Cannondale T2000 was to get it level which I fixed by bending the bottom mounting arms and getting it high enough to clear my fenders which I fixed by cutting the mounting arms and drilling new holes to mount to the forks with. This is a time consumming task as you adjust a little, put it on, take it off and then adjust some more. It certainly does come out of the box fit onto the bike without a little mechanical adjustment. Over all I really like the rack but it was quite a chore to get it to fit my bike but once you have it fitted it works well.
