Rear rack for sport touring bike

[Bernard Duhon]

 

 

Planning a tour on my Sport touring bike.  98mm wheel base    42.5 chain stay length

Under 30 pounds split 10 pd front & 20 pd rear

 

Need brain trust to recommend a rear rack.

I carry a similar load and my Tubus Vega handles it without any sway.  As it should, 20lbs is a light load for the rack.

If you need more heel clearance due to the relatively short stays and your feet size, then could look up market a bit to their Logo rack that allows for lower and further back loading.

The Tubus Fly at 420 grams and rated for 18 kg. I used them for years with no problems under 30 to 40 lb rear loads on road bikes.

When thou didst not, savage,

Know thine own meaning, but wouldst gabble like

A thing most brutish, I endowed thy purposes

With words that made them known.

Thanks I am looking for a rack that allows a lower mounting that I can also use on my “real” touring bike with heavier loads.  Tubus has several models I am evaluating.
