Thule Pack 'n Pedal Side Frames, Obsidian

I bought these because they can be clamp led on and easily remove. I was afraid they might not be strong enough to hold the weight of large panier bags, but I decided to try them because they were made by Thule. After two weeks of daily commuting they’ve worked fantastic. No shifting or sagging and the quick attachment works great.

Great product except with panniers that are heavier I found that the support frames rotated / twisted slightly towards the back wheel. Was not an issue just concerned if over time this would cause warping of the frames and eventually the bags would be catching the wheel. Actually this pack n pedal rack has been the best pannier rack I have had.

So, I have been running full steam ahead into the e-biking world at full speed, and I'm having a ton of fun, but I am still pretty new. The first problem that I need to overcome was where to put my battery. After one failed experiment with a product that was never going to stand the test of time, I ended up getting the Thule Tour Rack, and while I think that rack is over priced, it does what I need it to do. Then, I found myself with this rack that could the battery, and a set of panniers. Seemed silly not to take advantage of that, so I got a pair, and I thought I was going to be fine without the side frames.... Well.... I wasn't. the first time I went to the grocery store for some groceries, the panniers fell into my wheel, if I had taken a second to think about it, I would have seen that coming. So, I'm not all that smart, fine, whatever. So I looked into this product and I saw the reviews saying it was flimsy and light and thought, you know, the rack is not supposed to be holding more that 20 pounds to begin with, and it's not really holding that weight itself, it's just keeping the bags from hitting the tires, shouldn't need a ton of strength to get that done, so I bought it. They're perfect. They aren't a military grade titanium alloy, they're aluminum and plastic, they're plenty sturdy enough to do what needs to be done. If you've already spend the outrageous amount of money on the Tour Rack (which mind you is the best option for a rear rack of a full suspension mountain bike) then the last twenty bucks for the side frames is a no brainer if you're going to use panniers.

Nothing much special to say about these. They allow you to mount non-Thule panniers to the Pack'nPedal Tour Rack. They do the job well. Only thing I can say is that with 3 contact points to the rack that are slightly flexible, the frame itself could have been made a bit sturdier. It will flex a bit with use.

Lightweight and very strong, excellent human engineering! Excellent product!!!

When paired with the Thule rack, these keep my side bags from getting into my spokes. One thing to consider before buying however it the total amount of weight you plan to carry. I exceeded the weight limit one time and the rack just rolled over and laid on my wheel. I had to remove some weight, and then check the tightness on the straps when I got home. I still have the Thule rack and might use it again on another bike when I plan to carry a lighter load.

The direction were extremely bare and did not show how to loop the straps to the brackets causing much unneeded frustration. After finally getting it on my bike and putting about 15 pounds of camping gear on the Thule pannier bag I was off... at least for a few blocks. Then the cheap plastic bracket cracked. Determined to not return it since I had spend about 2 hours getting it onto my bike I put a zip tie over it which held up well enough. I was off for a second time, getting several more blocks until the weight of the 15 pound pannier pulled the flimsy and flexible frame into the side of my tire which started rubbing rubber off it and destroying the frame and my tire. This thing is junk as much as I want to work.

The instructions were not totally clear, so it took me a little while to realize I had to loosen all the bolts in order to slide the top ones into place on my rack, but once I did, it connected securely and solidly. This went onto a full-suspension mountain bike, easily and quickly. No complaints at all.

Excelente

Firstly to confirm there are 2 racks in the box one for each side. This was not 100% clear was not sure if they were sold individually so just purchased 1 to check. Pleased to see they were both included. Very easy to fit and seem really good quality. My non-thole pannier bags fit perfectly and snug against the frame with multiple fixing points to secure them well. I recommend these 100% as an addition to the basic rack. Happy cycling everyone..

Daha önce Thule arka bagaj almıştım Bu uniteyle çantaları koruma imkanı veriyor

キャリアの拡張に購入しました。見た目も性能も良いです。

Cet accessoire vient en complement du Porte-Bagages THULE PACK'N PEDAL TOUR RACK XT, pour pouvoir y fixer une paire de sacoche. Sans celui-ci elles ne sont pas correctement tenues et risquent d'endomager les bases du velo par frottement ou de se décrocher au passage dans des trous. Je l'ai vécu, la partie intérieure de mes sacoches VAUDE étant en plastique dure et rugueux, mes bases en alu du VTT commençaient à etre limées par frottement, et cela seulement quelques jours après la pose des sacoches ! C'est ce qui m'a décidé à acheter cet accessoire. Produit très bien pensé, de bonne qualité comme tous les produits de cette marque. Son prix semble être largement justifié.
