Swing Away Bike Rack For Bike With Rear Fender

Question:

I wanted to purchase this rack for a Allant+ 7s Stagger. The front fender looks like it will not be a problem but obviously the back fender will. Except! I am getting the Small frame size. Could the rear wheel clamp clear the bike rack to hold it in place instead of the tire? If not, how would I handle?

Hey Laura,

There is a swing-away rack you can use with the Allant+ 7s Stagger that has the rear fender but not the RockyMounts AfterParty # RKY37ZR. The rear wheel holder won't be compatible with the fender at all, as its not able to secure a rack via the frame or fender - it simply won't offer the necessary stability. So instead I recommend the following:

- RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # RKY10002

The # RKY10002 is a wheel-mounted rack as well, but just for the front tire. IIt will work with the short front fender on your bike, and it has a rear wheel strap to safely secure it.
