With the option of using cargo cages or bottle cages on the struts, it’s a fairly unique rack that offers a few different options for carrying extra gear and water. The T Rack is a simple Chromoly steel rack that features a set of “three-pack” triple bottle mounts on each main strut and a 120mm wide by 300mm long top platform that can be used to support a large saddlebag, or to secure a drybag in lieu of a seat pack. Several of us have now put thousands of miles on these racks with no issues to speak of. They also each come in two different lengths for bikes of different sizes. What separates these racks from most others on the market is that they each come with a three-pack of threaded mounts on both sides. A little extra carrying capacity makes all this possible.Įnter Tumbleweed’s two accessory friendly racks: the minimal T Rack and slightly more versatile Mini Pannier Rack.

During these trips, we’ve become quite fond of bike glamping, or at least bringing a few luxury items along for the ride-fishing gear, camp chairs, pajamas, cold beer, and good food. And during the COVID-19 lockdown we’ve been fortunate to be able to roll out our back door and escape into the woods for a good mental reset a few times a month. Over the past year we’ve been going on quite a few short overnight trips around our local national forest. Full use of a dropper post and a very versatile storage system are a couple of the reasons. However, after using the Tumbleweed T Rack and Mini Pannier Rack for a while, I’ve become quite hooked. I generally pack light and haven’t cared to revisit memories of loosening rack bolts or the couple extra pounds of weight racks entail.

It’s been a while since I’ve had any interest in using a rear bike rack.
