Front racks for folder. Why is it so difficult to buy?

I wanted to buy the Dahon front rack for two folders. I want to use the folders for a trip in the mountains this summer and want to put some of the load in the front. Why is it imossible to buy? Anybody know where to try?

https://www.dahon.com/intl/accessorie.../frontrack.htm this, or something with a similar funktion is what I want.

Is there a different solution that can be used, like a rear rack that could fit or modifyed? Any racks for bigger bikes that could be modifyed?
