I was't aware of the Nitto Longboy, which is nowhere to be found. The Nitto
medium rack I had on the Betty seems to fit well on the 60 Cheviot since it
has the higher braze-ons on the seat stays that allows the shorter medium
rack to fit well and not be pushed back like the large one. It seems to fit
without needing to adjust the struts, which is good.

I may mount the Pletscher to see how it looks and fits, especially as I've
found some comments about it not fitting with wider fenders.
