A BOBish bike, not a Rivendell, but Riv content is the Mark's Rack. I was facing this, how to attach a front mini-rack to a bike built on a cross frame with no holes of any kind - my saddle bag is full of roadside stuff and I need a place to stuff layers this winter.

Have another green Sackville small trunk I move on and off another bike, but the color does not work. But I did determine the front bag will crop the light right in front of the bike, so I'm going to move a light mount to the front stay on the rack https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rbw-owners-bunch/S4O98dttMNs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
