0p71mu5pr1m3I like the rack and in combination with the grocery bags I ordered it was a great setup. My biggest complaint with the rack is that if it's not loaded it rattles quite loudly.

labishVery nice rack for the price. Should serve its purpose as a grocery pannier holder.

A GuestA good basic rack. No rattling. Seems capable of being fit with side bags or baskets.

jhammondDecent rack, especially for the price. I didn't find it too difficult to mount, though it would have been much better to use some kind of integrated nuts for the four bolt/nut sets that hold the rails to the rack, which would have eliminated the need to use two tools at once to get them tightened down after adjusting them.
It's very lightweight and, when correctly installed, feels solid and doesn't rattle. No washers but the included hardware was of decent quality. Installed with no problems on my wife's 2011 Giant Sedona.

sortitusI bought a pair of these for my commuters. One is a 29er with 1.66" tires and the other is a regular old steel frame 26 with similar width tires. The rack barely clears my tire on the 29er (though this is more the fault of the frame manufacturer), making the rack double as a low coverage fender even better.
The low weight is nice, though some panniers may be a tight fit on the large diameter tubing. Bikes with a wider stance require attaching the rack in tension, which is a little scary for aluminum. Still, I doubt you'd have a failure unless you bolted the rack on with some serious spacers.
The rails for angle adjustment are overlong, but can be trimmed down to lower weight even more. I also traded out the bolts for some shorter ones with lockrings. I'm not sure how necessary that was, but everything has been working well for a couple thousand miles.

A Guest130 lbs load limit it pretty good for such an affordable rack. Installation was simple no complaints.
