I've updated my rear rack site at "http://nordicgroup.us/rearracks/".
This site looks at long rear luggage racks that provide sufficient heel
clearance for use with large panniers, for persons with big feet.
This quest started when I purchased an Arkel Bug pannier/backpack and
found that my current rack (Blackburn Expedition) was too short, and my
foot would hit the bag with every pedal revolution.
I've also included information and photos of how to shift the rack
position back a couple of inches, and how to mount racks on bicycles
where the seat stay braze-ons are too far back to use the brackets that
are included with the rack.
If anyone knows of any racks I've missed on the site, please let me know.
