Old Man Mountain Divide Rack Old Man Mountain racks are the most versatile racks on the market! They can be mounted on full-suspension mountain bikes, gravel bikes, road bikes, fat bikes, and even tri-bikes. Tested and proven in the most extreme environments on earth (we're still trying to get NASA to take them to the moon): Old Man Mountain racks have helped riders traverse Iceland in the dead of winter, carry the gear of countless GDMBR (Great Divide Mountain Bike Route) riders, and circumnavigate the globe. The only question left is, where will they take you? Looking to use Old Man Mountain racks on a bike that isn't set up for racks? Or want to swap your rack between multiple bikes? An Old Man Mountain Fit Kit is all you need! The Old Man Mountain Divide Rack presents itself as an extremely versatile and robust solution for transporting equipment on bicycles. Constructed from durable 6061 aluminum, it combines a low weight of only 970 g with remarkable stiffness and strength. Its compatibility with tires up to a width of 3 inches, even with fenders mounted, underscores its adaptability for a wide variety of bicycle types and applications.
A special feature of the Divide is its flexible mounting option. It can be attached to both the front and rear wheel, giving the user additional options for load distribution. The main frame of the rack consists of sturdy 13 mm tubes, while the rack rails have a diameter of 10 mm. The lower rack rail proves to be extremely practical in everyday use, as it significantly simplifies the loading and unloading of panniers and optimizes the secure lashing of equipment.
The generous deck area of 100 mm x 266 mm is equipped with well-thought-out slots that allow for uncomplicated fixing of luggage. In addition, holes for mounting bicycle lights are integrated, which increases safety when riding in dusk or darkness. The height-adjustable dropouts contribute to the wide compatibility of the rack and allow adaptation to different tire sizes.
The Divide comes standard with mounting eyelets. For bicycles without these eyelets, special kits for mounting on thru-axles or conventional quick releases are optionally available. The high load-bearing capacity of the rack is remarkable: when mounted on eyelets, it is 25 kg, while with the axle mounting kits that attach the rack to the axle, it even increases to an impressive 33 kg. The black powder coating not only ensures an appealing appearance but also provides additional protection against environmental influences. The quality of this product is underlined by the manufacturer's lifetime warranty. The scope of delivery includes the rack itself, as well as the height-adjustable dropouts, extension struts, and the necessary stainless steel mounting hardware.
