> > Leah, A couple/few suggestions here: > A) There are plenty of lights that fit that little tab on the rack. (Unfortunately that would make the existing light obsolete) You could still use the same cable routing as now, just extend it up through the fender to the rack mounting point. B) Take a hack saw and saw the light tab off the rack. cover up scar with some silver paint. (I am sure Riv knows what kind of paint matches the Nitto silver) C) Ditch the rear rack entirely; Since I stopped commuting I find the rear rack/bag sort of superfluous. I am running a Med. Wald basket up front mounted on a Surly 8 pack rack with a massive Realm Basket bag, so more than enough capacity, but I could do with much less (& frequently do) and I am guessing you could as well. I took the rear rack off my bike just prior to my Western states circuit a month ago and I really didn't miss the extra weight. It's a pity to weigh down a lively light bike with excess weight, whether it be a Crust Titanium or a Platypus. IMHO I would ditch the rear rack and get a front rack. Bonus Front racks typically have a more forward mounting position for your light which I really appreciate.
