Looking to get a rack for my roadrat, don't fancy one of those that are cantilevered off the seat post as i'm hoping to run a carbon one.

The prices range from about a tenner on the fleabay to £30 plus for something like Topeak etc.

Are the Fleabay ones any good, especially the ally ones (thinking of weight)

Get yourself a flash titanium Tubus Airy rack. With all that weight in a steel frame you'll need to save a few grams. 🙂

You will probably find that the welds will go on the 'bargain' versions. If you want light weight with strength then The Rolls Royce is a Tubus rack. However, I have a TorTec Ultralight that is pretty much the equal of the Tubus one at less than half the price. They've got them on Wiggle.

Point taken coleman, 🙄

I was after as light as possible (but within small budget).

Tortek seem good.

I'll bear those in mind
