Packer Rack Set

Packer Rack Set

Designed for bikepackers and all riders, the Packer Rack set provides an alternative mounting point for dry bags, stuff sacks, backpacks, handlebar bags, or other items on the seatpost, utilizing tension or nylon straps.

Compared to large direct-mount and harness-mount saddlebags, attaching a large bag of the same capacity to the Packer Rack offers better weight distribution and balance because the load is closer to the front and has a lower centre of gravity.

Once the bag is properly secured, it won't wobble or sway, making your rides more stable and easier to handle.

When not used on the seatpost, the Packer Rack can be mounted directly on bike forks with three or two M5 screws, like other cargo cages on the market.


* Rubber pad for mounting on Ø25.8-26.2 seat posts is available with the purchase of a 27.0/27.2 clamp. Please request in the "Order Notes” during checkout.

Horizontal setup

When set up horizontally, the Packer Rack can secure different types of soft bags. The acceptable size of the bag depends on the clearance above the wheel.

Need to carry a bit more? Just attach the additional item above or behind with extra straps.

Vertical setup

Packer Rack can be used vertically on any bike with a long exposed seatpost. It is perfect for small-wheel bikes to carry larger bags while maintaining a narrower side profile for cruising in small-town alleys or accessing public transit.

Tension straps make loading and unloading luggage quick and easy, provide better grip on smooth surfaces, and are easy to clean.

Nylon straps with locking hardware are a better choice for securing heavy and oversized items.

Measurements

Measurements

This rack has multiple slots for various strap arrangements. The smaller slots on the outside accommodate straps with up to 25mm (1 inch) wide, and allowing the strap to pass through at least twice, which helps manage the remaining ends.

Tilting Up or Down

Tilting Up or Down

The rack has two tilting angles. The downward option will fit most bikes and keep the rack away from the thighs even when the saddle is further back.

The upward setting moves the bag closer to the saddle, increasing wheel clearance. Suitable for bicycles with a forward saddle position.
