The comeback of the rack?
Mountain bikers and bikepackers for many years have been experiencing problems with carrying cargo during their rides. They are riding hills with backpacks filled with snacks or heavy dangling bags and cups clumsily strapped to a saddle and seatpost. And with no mounting options for racks on their (suspension) bikes it was a hopeless situation.
In recent years a new trend has occurred that brings riders more stability, safety and comfort while riding their bike with gear, getting the weight off riders backs and on to their bikes. Adding a rack to your gravel or mountain bike is something more and more people do while going on a trip or a long weekend ride. Since the set-up is relatively new in the world of gravel biking and mountain biking it’s sometimes a refreshingly odd sight, turning heads along the way. Old Man Mountain racks are the most versatile racks available. Capable of mounting to full-suspension mountain bikes, gravel bikes, road bikes, fat bikes, even tri-bikes if that’s what you’re in too"
Introduced in 2021, the Divide is the evolution of their rugged and reliable Classic rack. Eyelet, thru axle, or quick-release skewer mountable, the Divide fits Gravel and Road bikes, Full suspension and hardtail bikes, even Tri bikes! The Divide Fat fits all fat bikes and larger Plus tires. The Divide dropout design is extremely versatile, making the divide front or rear ready. Even on the most rugged terrain or jumping through the air, the Divide has a massive 55lb/25kg carrying capacity when eyelet mounted and a 70lb/33kg capacity when axle mounted using one of their Fit Kits. The Divide is made to fit up to 3″ tires with room for mud, and the Divide Fat fits all fat bike tires. With height adjustable dropouts, the Divide has plenty of room for fenders, even with large tires. A low pannier rail makes it easier to take bags off with gear lashed to the deck. It also lowers the center of gravity making the bike more stable.
