I've got a cheap aluminum rack designed with adjustable struts to clear 29er tires and disk brakes; "Sunlite" is embossed on the rack platform thus guaranteeing that it was made in Taiwan. I suppose this is adequate -- it is rated to 50 lb -- but I wonder if there exist nicer, chromo racks that will clear 29er tires and fenders; the strut would have to measure ~14.5"/37 cm from center of eyelet to underside of platform; perhaps half an inch of fudge factor.
(FWIW, the adjustable struts have, I guesstimate, another 2" of extension available -- would clear a Pugsley, etc.) The Tubus Logo would have been fine except for Tubus's unfortunate under-platform strut clamps that crowd tire clearance. Exist there off the shelf racks with 50 lb capacity that have such clearance? I'd pair it with a Tubus Tara.
