Hey all! I recently set up my Atlantis with a Mark's rack and medium Walk zip-tied to it. I double strutted the rack and have the Irish strap connecting the tombstone to the bars (Chocos).
I have an x-small saddle sack that I love and was offered a matching one at a great price. I love the way the x-small sack looks/fits on my handlebars, but I'm having some serious issues figuring out how to strap the tombstone for support while having a handlebar bag. One solution I might have is to strap the tombstone to the headtube horizontally. I did it a minute ago and looped the Irish strap a bunch of times and tightened it up. Is this good enough for supporting the rack if the tange fails? Will the strap on the frame rub off the paint or top/clear coat? Any ideas on how to have both a Mark's rack and x-small handlebar bag are welcome. For what it's worth...I don't plan on ever exceeding the 4 pound recommendation on the rack. I've used it to carry my 3 pound laptop and charger (with a Captain Hook), to grab a 3 pound bag of groceries, etc...I may push it to a six pack of beer, but I have a rear rack and panniers if I need to carry anything heavy.
