Will this rack work on a fork without braze-ons?

I had lower brazons and tried to use the u bolts on the front fork of a Marin bike with disc brakes and big tubed fork. I got it to work but not as intended to. At best I could carry light loads, but nothing I would feel safe touring with.

it depends, it works if you do not have mid blade eyelets but you have to have at least one braze on the drop out to make it work

yes, but you still need eyelets at the drop outs. the racks come with brackets if you dont have braze ons at mid fork.

Yes, but I modified it on my Disc Trucker a bit to space it out from the fork to make more room for the disc brake and to better hand these panniers I use for getting beer. I don't know how to attach a photo here, but if you send me yours I'll send you a pic. I used steel sleeves I bought at Home Depot and longer bolts. It will bolt up without the modification, but I prefer it spaced out a skosh.

Yes. The two forks slide through the stabilizer bar and is held in place by a bolt on each side.

Although this is designed for open forks, not thru axles, I'm not qualified to say you couldn't get it to work. You would certainly have to disassemble the bolt, nut and clamp each and every time you used it.

Obviously I cannot promise anything, but if the bike has a traditional front brake (that pinches the rim) versus a disk front brake it should work. The rack mounts to the front forks using the mounting points also used for a traditional front brake. I hope this helps.

You may be able to use it without an adapter, but for my wife's bike it works better with the Thule adapter that acts as a center bar. Be careful of the distance between the seat post and the front fork tube, the adapter is pretty long even when it is fully retracted. Get the measurements off of your bike and check them against any adapter you look at. I like the Thule adapter, it is very sturdy.

Not on your existing rack. It mounts onto a special rack that it's provided with the seat.

Any hardware store will have a mounting plate that will work just fine. No need to braze anything. If you are missing the mounting studs, simply use 8/32 thread screws secured to the back of the mounting plate with a hex nut.

The rack has two scewers on it that your quick release front fork fits on. It tightens down just like the wheel does. I've used it three times so far it works like a dream

Depends on the bike's frame. If you are replacing the front brake and the bike originally had a center pivot brake like the Pyramid, then yes. If the bike frame has brake posts located on each for fork tube, then no. If you are replacing the rear brake on your bike, it must have a bracket with a single hole located between the seat stay tubes.

This fork is only for disc brakes. I am quite happy with it on my back up mountain bike.

The piece that normally goes on the front fork & the small diameter piece that fits onto a spoke "should" work on the back...as long as you have room to place these two small pieces ( most likely on the opposite side of gears). The piece for the fork has a "zip tie" style to lock in place. I had no trouble installing myself BUT do use the instruction booklet to set your recommended tire size to get accurate reading. Easy use & easy application ....

Yes, it has brakets which will fasten to the threaded braze-ons behind the seat. Circular clamps are also included, for bikes which are not equipped with these threaded fastening points.

Most forks, even for disc brakes, will have a mounting hole for this rack. You may need to get longer bolts to work with a fatbike fork.

No. The mounting system is really simple. Just a long, narrow loop of metal that fits a screw and can be fixed onto your fork if it has the proper place for it. It shouldn't be too difficult, though, to rig something up.

The rack has clearance for 29"/700c wheels, so it should fit 26" wheels just fine. Suspension fork legs move independently of the fork crown, so there's no way to mount this to a front shock. To use a rack with suspension, ideally you'd want the load mounted to the frame, not the fork legs. I'm not aware of any racks that achieve this.

Won't fit with the forks still attached. If you take the tube off the fork, you VOID your warranty.
