Having lockouts is pretty nice to have on a bike. Now that the wife and I have been using bikes with lockouts I don't think I would go back. It seems to keep the bikes versatile enough for us.

Question Besides Shape, What's The Difference Between These 2 Bontrager Racks?

http://www.bontrager.com/model/08243 & this one http://www.bontrager.com/model/00327

They both use Bontrager's interchange bags. They both accept bags with panniers as well.
