I just did this a few weeks ago and I can confirm it works, at least on my Atlantis. The Tektro hanger comes with two recessed allen nuts that work with the Nitto. A Sheldon's fender nut works here too, but the rack stud is too long to allow the second bolt that attaches the fender to engage. The angle of the rack changes slightly due to the thickness of the hanger, and the one or two thick toothy washers needed to clear the lower headset cup - so attaching the lower struts to the braze-ons takes a little more encouraging than usual. hope that helps.
