As my much more handy than I am brother used to say:  If it doesn’t fit, get a 
bigger hammer!

Ah, tandem spacing, I forgot about that. Can you do what you need to do with a 
BaggaBond hanging off the rear saddle? It's huge and I have an olive one I'm 
selling (or you can buy from Riv).

Ok, I did my deep breathing and can settle on a Tubus if it is silver:  has 
anyone tried one, please?

Thanks, Joe

Yeah, I called them last night and they said Nittos weren’t really wide enough, 
consider Tubus.  I think I am being immature and in denial, about a bike rack.  
Hmm.

Hmm, that's a tough one. Maybe you can call Riv and ask them to slide a Big 
Rack up to Grant's bike and see what they think. I don't know if he has a disc 
on that one, but they should be able to eyeball it. The Large model has the 
most square/tall open space so I think would have the best chance of clearing 
that brake.

[RBW] Racks for Hubbuhubbuh

2019-06-17 Thread Paul Burns
I've read all the older posts I can find, but would appreciate an update:  
what beautiful silver rack are you running on a Hubbuhubbuh with disc drag 
brake?  Ideally my rack would be Nitto and Riv-supplied (I know MG is 
running a Nitto R15)

My goal:  not touring, just to be able to carry two bags of groceries seven 
miles, once a week.

Thank you
