Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I didn't think you were supposed to put a seatpost rack on a carbon post. 180 pounds supported vertically is one thing, but 20 pounds with that much leverage and a relatively small clamp just seems like trouble to me.

Yeah, never ever put a seatpost-mounted rack on a cf seatpost. That is bad news.

The Nitto R15 is an expensive rear rack at $107. Does anyone know of sources for the Nitto R15?
