That being said, I think I have a better chance just sticking with the built-in loops on my Brooks saddle plus a stand-off vs. trying to add a rear rack to support the bag, because on the subject bike, a 60cm XOXO, the bag will barely make contact with a rear rack when hung from the saddle, unless the rack can be made to sit pretty high above the rear wheel. Does anyone have experience with the Nitto NR-20 or NR-21 ( http://store.somafab.com/ninrrebagsu1.html)? It looks like that may sit higher based on the rear canti mounts and in that it's specifically meant as a rear bag support. -Jeff Silver Spring, MD -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
