hi any RAG owners out there?

it looks like a fun bike but 90% of the time I would need to use it as a commuter, about 15 miles a day. Does anyone have experience of using it as a commuter. My other choice is the diverge which is £500 more but looks a lot more like a road bike, great for comuting but less ability to RAG it 😂

Any other thoughts you have on the bike would be great too.

Does it have rack mounts? Ability to put on Mudguards etc

Thanks

I bought a Willier Jaroon specifically cos it could accommodate fixed mudguard and rack. It was discounted at CRC. I put on some 32c as well.

I use mine for commuting, it had guard mounts not rack. Stack is quite low.

There's a couple of RAG+ threads on the go already if you STF but to answer your question it has mudguard mounts but no rack mounts. There seem to be 2 versions of the fork, one with mounts on the dropouts and one with them on the inside of the legs. Max tyre size with guards is about 37 on the back, probably more on the fork.

It's an good commuter bike for me since I can get to work via various back paths and tracks and it's fine on the road too. The lack of rack points isn't an issue for me but it might be for some.
