I was able to mount the Big Rack to my Bombadil using Nitto hardware

That's just brilliant, John. I'm a little embarrassed I didn't think of it
myself. Thanks for the insight.

Maybe a pic of yours, Scot? Did Riv move the placement of the mid-fork
attachment? Is this is sidepull vs canti
Shoji,
Mine is a 60cm 700c side puller. I did see the video, but thought a bike with
the high rider eyelets would line up perfectly since that seems to be the Nitto
way. I can post a pic tonight after work and you can see my Frankenstein
screw/washer/spacer concoction I came up with.

Scot,
It is possible, http://flic.kr/p/dUxFk4 (sorry for the bad picture). I've
never understood what the parameters are to make it fit, my NBFR is an older
one. When i tried with the p-clamps i actually didn't like how it fit.
this is not a perfect situation though, having it canted far
I agree that it would be nice to see a re-design with a vertical slot that
could fit the mid-fork braze-on, on all the various Riv forks. I have the
same one you have, and I'd like it even better if it fit without a
p-clamp. Maybe their experience on the HA Rack will spawn a re-design.

Looks like a perfect candidate for Alex Wetmore's elegant hack:

Two triangles of aluminum span the gap to the braze-ons, and two bolts on
the slot side keeping the extension from rotating.
