Review by undiutedigitalReviewed 11/29/2014by undiutedigitalCycling EnthusiastSan Francisco Peninsula6 of 6 customers found this review helpful.Great solution if you have a road or mountain bike that lacks rear drop-outs - and you need a rack.My dropout-less mountain bike can now be used for treks, thanks to this rack. This is the only mainstream (i.e., not $100) rack I could find that uses a special long skewer to provide base support. My only issue was the lack of clear documentation of what you get - and don't get - in the package. You get all the hardware you need to attach to seat stays in the front. However, my mountain bike doesn't really have stays that could work. I had to solve the problem with a Salsa Post-Lock, which is a seat post collar that provides mounting points for the Blackburn rack's extenders. Result is rock solid, and I highly recommend it. Only bummer is that the Salsa Post-Lock is 1) expensive $30 and 2) rare. You'll almost certainly have to buy it on the internet. And the Post-Lock kind of ruins the bargain you'd have with the Blackburn alone.

Review by BSchatsiekReviewed 8/5/2013by BSchatsiekCycling EnthusiastJefferson City, MO4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Pretty good rackWorks very well. The piece that was supposed to go around the seatpost wasn't big enough to go around mine and then still have room for the screws, but i went to lowe's and found something similar enough to make it work. No rattling or movement at all when on rocky trail for miles and miles.

Review by 76tradesmanReviewed 12/14/2012by 76tradesmanCompetitive RacerMinnesota5 of 11 customers found this review helpful.Disappointed with skewer mount designBought this rack for my bike with disc brakes. When ordering it, I didn't notice the design that it mounts on the rear wheel skewer. I thought it was specifically for bikes with disc brakes, not a bike with disc brakes AND no mounting holes. This rack isn't needed unless you don't have normal mounting locations. Trying to deal with this rack being mounted on your rear skewer on the road to change a flat seems like a nightmare. Sending it back.

Review by ScooterReviewed 3/5/2015by ScooterCycling EnthusiastPortland, OR3 of 3 customers found this review helpful.No braze ons? No problemThis rack is great for your typical mountain bike with no easy way to mount a rack. Combined with the Problem Solvers Seat clamp w Rack Mount Threads this will fit on nearly any mountain bike.
