Details
- Set of 2 (Left and Right)
Perfect for adventure touring, cycle camping, carrying the shopping, whatever you need to do.
We believe that our Thorn carriers are the strongest carriers on the market, they have been used in extreme conditions, with massive weights and nobody has broken one yet that we know of!
Our carriers are made from 10mm seamless, cold drawn, heat treated, aerospace Cr-Mo steel.
We have our tubes heat treated which makes a significant difference to the Ultimate Tensile Strength but can cause some slight imperfections in the straightness. – when fitting, please be aware you make need to tweak the rack slightly but we can assure you this does not affect the strength in any way.
Dimensions;
Height 305mm
Top rail width 215mm - of which 180mm is useable
Weight 560g.
Max load when used on surfaced roads;
When fitted with 6mm screws - 18kg per side
When fitted with 5mm screws - 12kg per side
These figures should be halved when being used on South American Ripio etc.
These will fit onto all standard Thorn forks with low loader bosses.
They will also fit onto other forks with the 165mm between top & lower fork bosses. The top boss needs to be accessible from both sides.

Add over wheel loop variant?
By A
14 Mar 2022
As the then Ctcs Technical Officer thought even thru mid fork eyelet racks like this should have a connecting overwheel hoop, have you considered making a hooped version to suit non thru midfork eyelids?

Bolt hole size? Fit Raven Sport Tour?
By pete
02 Feb 2021
Will this fit my Thorn Raven Sport Tour (2005) which has M5 bolt holes? There is a pair spaced 165 mm apart and they are double-ended, like an egg timer, which looks promising. Does the rack have M6 bolt holes?
SJS Customer Service:
Thanks for enquiry, yes will fit fine

Fit for a Troll ?
By Finn
11 Nov 2019
Hello SJS, I'm wondering if this rack will fit on a 2019 Surly Troll (26" wheels). Thanks, Finn
SJS Customer Service:
Designed for Thorn forks, they will also fit onto other forks with the 165mm between top & lower fork bosses. The top boss needs to be accessible from both sides. I don't have a Surly Troll Fork to measure but looking at the pictures online the upper boss looks far too high to accept this rack, BUT you have one so you can take the measurement.
Measured 163mm center to center on older Dawes galaxy, good chance it will work?

Hi,
these are designed to fit forks with 165mm between top & lower fork bosses so it is possible this won't work judging by the dimensions you have given.
