Description
Adventure-Ready Front Rack for Surly Bikes
Engineered for explorers who demand rugged reliability, this dual-anchor rack transforms your Surly bike into a versatile cargo carrier perfect for fat bike expeditions and 29+ wheel trail adventures.
Key Advantages
✅ Patented mid-blade/crown dual-mount system distributes weight evenly across fork structure
✅ Pre-configured compatibility with Surly LHT (2018+), Pugsley (2020+), and Moonlander framesets
✅ Includes premium hardware bundle: corrosion-resistant stainless steel bolts + silicone vibration dampeners
✅ Tested to withstand 35-lb (16kg) loads on gravel roads at 15mph speeds
Smart Compatibility Design
Optimized specifically for Surly’s double-braze-on fork architecture (2015+ models). Not suitable for forks with single crown mount points or non-Surly carbon fiber framesets.
Safety-Certified Mounting System
Features patented Auto-Lock™ geometry that self-aligns with Surly’s proprietary fork eyelets while maintaining <2mm play tolerance – critical for maintaining steering precision on singletrack mountain routes or winter trail conditions.
Competitive Edge Matrix
Specification | Our Rack | Standard Porteur | Universal Fork Rack |
---|---|---|---|
Weight Distribution | 60/40% front/rear | 80/20% front bias | Equal distribution |
Frame Protection | Silicone spacers | Basic rubber pads | Bolt-through design |
Load Capacity | 35 lbs | 25 lbs | 15 lbs |
Fork Compatibility | Surly-specific | Generic steel forks | Any threaded fork |
Ideal for all-terrain cyclists needing reliable front storage solutions that won’t compromise handling on technical descents or icy winter commutes. The integrated torque-limiting washers prevent over-tightening damage – a common issue with generic front racks on aluminum framesets.
Built to endure where others fail – guaranteed fork integrity on Alaska tundra routes, Nordic trail networks, or daily urban commuter routes with equal precision.
