wow, a 7-rail CETMA. What do you carry on that thing? I've got a 5 rail and have found it to be very unstable with more than a couple of pounds and even that significantly slows down my steering. It's better on my old Raleigh sports and sprite but terrible on all my modern bikes. I feel like I should really like the idea of a porteur rack just haven't cared for it in practice.... Now maybe a Kogswell might change my mind. Do you find it difficult to control with the 68mm or so of trail?
