It should, if the upper mounts are 165 mm above the lower ones. Check
the touringstore.com website for a drawing showing this. The Duo has
no vertical adjustment. The 3 holes on the mounting tabs allow
leveling of the rack. The Duo comes with a spacer kit for fitting it
up to forks of
Doug,
Assuming the Atlantis was set up with a fork with full braze-ons like the
Bombadil fork is currently set up, will the Duo mount well on the braze-ons
that are behind the fork and that are meant for low-rider racks?
I'm getting such a fork on my Atlantis that will replace my Bombadil, and

Good news! I am glad to hear you are happy with the Sam handling

My vote is low riders. A good stiff rack such as Tubus has more
affect on handling than the type of bags. You can always modify bags
for a more secure mounting but you're stuck with a floppy rack.

Porteurs are excellent for multiple stop errands or taking bulky items
relatively short distances.
Low riders are excellent for packing a load in tight on longer non-

for city riding. When I go on tour, the Cetma will come off
