The bracket is plenty strong and stable, and I carried a sawzall to my dad's house with no problems yesterday....~15lbs. I believe it's spec'd to carry over 25lbs
Back to your question, lol. It will have plenty of clearance to fit, but you may have to bend the attachment bracket to get it to sit level. And it's steel, so of course it's heavy. The mounting bolts are cheap, so I used allen bolts for the stays, and a beefier bolt for the bracket (with a locknut) One more very important note: you'll have to supply your own reflector
@Aaron: wonder how it didn't fit? Maybe there are more than one size of these Wald racks? If it fits on a 27" bike, how would it not fit on a 26" Sports? weird.
