Afternoon all,
I'm after a front rack/basket for a Kona MinUte. The fork has rack bosses halfway up it's leg and ideally I would like one that mounts there. The Kona Dew has the kind of thing I want (image below) but I can't find one for sale, any ideas?
Have a search for porteur rack.
they are EVERYwhere in holland. shouldnt be too hard if you look on dutch sites 😉
My missus wanted a Kona one too, emailed them who directed me to Evans. Put a request into the website and it got passed to the 'Special Order Team' but never got a response.
Never had much joy in getting one with the higher mounts, all the others I found which were similar had longer mounts.
If you turn something up - let me know!
RM.
try velo orange randoneur.
Won't be cheap but,

trail_rat - I'll head off and Google "Dutch front racks" and see what pops up 🙂
you work from home...youll be ok:)
I'd like one of those for my Ute!
Struggled to find exactly what I wanted so in the end I modified a Basil Memories front carrier. Cut down the legs to mount on the fork bosses and cut the back down and it's held at the top with a BMX stem under bar stem...
Can't quite make out the double stem set up but here's a pic
Just had a reply from my friendly local Kona dealer (Bache Brothers in Lye). They can order those racks from Kona direct and they are £89. So I now have to decide if I want to spend nearly £100 on a bike rack. Hmm.
£89 seems a bit steep!
