Adventure Rack, constructed of 7000 series aluminum, is stronger than traditional V-racks, and accommodates the use of standard panniers with your Xtracycle system.
The Adventure Rack can be used singly, with Whatchamacollars, as show above can be used with a snap deck and tradtional V-rack on the other side (no Whatchamacollars neccessary), or as part of the Adventure Rack kit. Inserting the Adventure rack works just like the V-rack, just plug and play. 700 c spacers can be used with the Adventure Rack if needed.
Use the Xtracycle Cam Straps to secure your panniers to your Adventure Racks. The Adventure Rack rail is 10mm (just slightly larger than 3/8”).
Ortleib panniers will press up against the FreeRadical Frame and secure with their mounting hardware. Other panniers, with spring loaded tesioners, may need to be hooked to the frame. Given the wide array of panniers on the market, we cannot guarantee that all will easily secure to the Adventure Kit.
We’ve provided cam straps as an alternate method of securing your panniers.
