Old Man Mountain Divide Rear Rack
Best heavy duty rack for versatile mounting on any adventure bike.
This is the rare rack that actually plays nice with full-suspension mountain bikes and dropper posts. It trades the simplicity of a standard fixed mount for a highly adjustable, universal design, finally letting you haul heavy gear on the same bike you use to shred singletrack.
