 TRADITIONAL rackAug 18, 2009
By Jim
No, it does not have mounting arms for a mountain bike or a dedicated touring bike like a Surly Long Haul Trucker. It is not specifically intended for carrying panniers on a tour. But if you want what a pletscher rack was in the 60s and 70s -a good way to carry a small basket on your road bike- this is it. It is intended to attach to stay eyelets and the seatstay bridge. The universal mounting hardware is for mounting to the brake pivot bolt of a rear caliper brake on newer bikes (80s-90s) without a suitable seatstay bridge. I am sure that the seller assumed that most people would know what a pletscher rack is and how to mount one. This rack is for a traditional road bike, not a mountain bike.

 Not what's picturedMay 17, 2007
By Thomas J. Krueger
The picture you see is NOT what you get. It does not attach to the braze-ons for a rack like you'd expect. The rack I received I can attach to my bike, but I would much rather have received what was pictured. It's not worth paying the shipping both ways to return.

 CAUTION!!!!!!!Sep 11, 2007
By Terrence D. Reich
"Terry R"
this rack is not what is pictured !!!! the left & right mounting arms on the front of this rack are not as pictured!! ...I was dissapointed to find this out after i opened the package and I immediately saw that this was not the rack in the picture!!. The front mount is 1 piece (not seperate mounting arms as pictured).. designed with 1 screw-hole, the hardware inclosed gives you a universal fit, I had to fit it to the small cross bar that ran horizontal between the factory frame mounts..( looks like the letter "A") between the seatpost and rear tire..It "works" but it is a "cheeessseee" way to mount this rack ..it is not as sturdy as it would be, if mounted to the seperate "arms" and factory screw-holes on my frame as the picture might indicate. Unless you have fabrication ability..I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RACK !!!!...THERE ARE NO INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS ON USING THE UNIVERSAL MOUNTING PARTS.
Worst rack ever!!!Nov 10, 2011
By Raiyn Storm
I tried mounting this rack to my bike and was utterly perplexed as to how I was supposed to mount it much less how exactly it functioned as a rack. It comes with no hardware or even instructions. This thing looks like some sort of black cable reel and not at all like a "vintage style" cargo rack.
Bike RackJul 10, 2009
By PaperMgr
Rack mounted easily and works well. Only thing missing when compared to "real" Pletscher rack on my other bike is a flip up bracket that keeps larger items from sliding out from under the spring loaded arm. The mounting holes are there but there is no bracket supplied.
