WTB: Nitto M18 rack

[Kieran J]

Hi all,

I need this rack to play well with my v-brakes.

Let me know if you have one to sell.

Thanks,

I don't have an M18 (i actually need one too), but I have this SOMA rack that I recently prchased in its stead,  but didn't work.  If you're interested and think it could work for your application, I'll give it to for you a bargain;

In my case, it didn't work because it interfered with my Paul Racer centerpull brakes.  It  sits slightly lower than the nitto racks due to the shape of the diving board.  I tried it with a nitto diving board that I happened to have, but then the struts - which are fixed-angle - didn't end up in the correct location.  I'm kind of bummed, because it would be much more sturdy than the nitto.  The fixed struts and thicker diving board are improvements if it fits.  I'd be comfortable with a much bigger load than on the M18

I think I'm gonna sit tight for the full adaptability of the M18. Thanks!

No problem.  If anyone else on the list could use the SOMA, feel free to PM me.  (Sorry for hijacking the thread.) 

After posting earlier, i just found this which may be of interest.  I need to study it, but may get one myself.  Price is right and I love the fact that it's made in Ukraine.  Any bit of comerce we can send their way is good:

The M-18 - and Nitto racks in general - are getting increasingly difficult to obtain. I work in a shop with a QBP account, and waited over 6 months for them to come in stock, I got 1 only because I had it on Item Reservation. They sold out the day they re-stocked. No current re-supply date available.

Thanks for all the offers!
