Tanaka Racketeer Basket Platform
Check our Shop Policies page for shipping costs and contact info.
This unique rack is designed specifically for wire baskets that don't come with their own mounting hardware. The T-shaped platform may prevent the basket from bending or warping that can sometimes happen to well-used baskets zip-tied to narrow front racks.
The basket (not included) lays on a flat steel plate and bolted securely at three points.
The platform attaches to the front fork much like other front racks – a tongue extends to the fork crown and two solid struts connect to the fork. If used on a road or CX fork, the struts would connect to the pannier eyelets or the fender eyelets. (Mini-rack mounts might be too high to offer optimum support.)
– Platform size: 260mm wide x 140mm deep x 30mm deep
– The struts have a lot more width adjustment than on a regular rack, so you can fit roads forks or MTB forks as wide as 160mm.
– Struts are 390mm long and can be cut down to suit different forks
