Could you tell me the measurement from the centre of the mount hole to where the metal bends below it?

I have a similar rack but it fouls the brake pads on my Mafac competition brakes. I’m aware this rack isn’t for these brakes however I’m also aware that it can be made to fit.

Wanting to fit it to a Surly Cross-check.

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

This is designed for a Rando style bag, not panniers. We can only suggest that is designed only for GC610 & DC750 brakes.

Hi there,

We would be unable to tell without having the brakes here and fitted to a bike, it all depends where the center pull sits.

Thanks

Question 6

Can I use this with the D.C. GC450 front brake?

By Jason

The shorter reach new GC450 brakes are not listed for compatability.

Can anyone there tell me if it will fit the 450. If so, I will order this mini-rack with those brakes.

Thanks from Duvall WA, US

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

Hi,

We have unfortunately never tested these racks on the GC450 brakes to be able to say for sure. As the design is similar (aside from the shorter reach) it may well be okay, but without testing we're unable to say for sure.

Thanks.

Question 8

Mounting Luxos Dynamo Light

By Craig

22 Nov 2015

Hello,
Due to increasing epicness(tm) of rides I'm doing, I'm looking at swapping to centerpulls, and adding an ENE rack.
What would I need to mount my B&M Luxos light to this rack, and do I need any extra mounting hardware?

Thanks.

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

Hi,

To mount your B&M Luxos light to this rack, you'll need a few extra small parts. The side holes are threaded so the light can be bolted directly into these, but normally the light will overhang onto the rack slightly. To get around this you can just fit a much longer bolt and some spacers.

Thanks.
