PacRak Question

[JadenEllis]

I was wondering if those of you with more experience than myself have ever had any luck with the Ibera PacRak on your Quest? I have a 451 v 3.0 I know that Cruzbike now offers a great rack for the Q, but I'm on a fixed income and funds are VERY limited. Your thoughts and experiences would be appreciated.

I was looking at a couple like... http://smile.amazon.com/Ibera-Bicyc..._UL160_SR160,160_&refRID=11BND4MJSC3T806GAK0Y

The issue is that you need a way to mount the upper arms to the rear swing arm and not the seat. It will be possible, but you might need to get creative.

Jaden, I'm did first as you are thinking, as I already had another rack that I could mount on my Quest but I needed to make a bracket to mount it. I made a bracket and mounted the rack and have used it to commute to work. It worked but when I go for rides on my weekend using only the rack top bag instead of the panniers I have noticed that I have a better ride. Faster and balanced better and more aero because it rides on top of the rack in the aero shadow of the seat. So I have ordered the commuter rack and look forward riding with my load in the aero shadow of the seat.
