Rack Question
So, I have a folding bike with a rear rack, and I have a road bike that has rack mounting points, can I just install my rack from the folding bike to my road bike? I assume the answer we probably be no, but I'm too lazy to uninstall. Thanks. I want to see if I can do this as I would like to have a rear rack on my road bike for transporting stuff occasionally, and don't have much confidence on my DIY seat post rack.

take some measurements. look at mounting points. that should provide enough info to give it a go or not

I have no idea of what you can do , have you tried yet?
there is your answer, No.
Buy a New one at a bike shop, pay what they want for it,
and they may put it on for you..
