Topeak rack final decision
 
Topeak rack final decision

Hi, Does anyone have experience with either of these two Topeak UNI racks?

https://www.topeak.com/global/en/products/mtb-&-700c-touring-racks/834-uni-super-tourist-(disc)

or

https://www.topeak.com/global/en/products/mtb-&-700c-touring-racks/835-uni-explorer-(disc)

I'm looking for the functional differences between the racks (as I can't see much difference between them other than the rear bar). I'm also looking for which one might work best with the Topeak MTX trunk bag DXP.

It's for a hybrid bike, http://www.bikes.com/en/bikes/whistler/2015 (must select Whistler 70 once on the site)

Also, For anyone who has the above racks, Can you get the measurement of the distance between the mounts? This distance.. https://www.screencast.com/t/hAjvlX6S
Thanks!


Thanks all!

I use the Explorer rack with that bag. Works fine.

Thanks, Do you use the UNI rack? (The adjustable one)

No, just the regular Explorer rack.

I have the Explorer rack on 2 bikes and switch between the dxp and the ex bags on both without issue.
