so...I have a SOMA double cross and the fork has eyelets and braze ons on the fork blade. I ordered a Blackburn lowrider front rack and some panniers. I have my daughter's seat on the back so panniers in back won't work (although if I am wrong on that, some please correct me)
here's the problem. te rack comes with a mounting u-bolt. made me feel silly for having the braze on but so what? only, it seems physically impossible to align the rack in the fork and have the screw go through the eyelet per the instructions. I tried to skip the u-bolt and use the braze on and no dice there, either.
Anybody out a front rack on a SOMA double cross fork?
