My only Nitto rack is much lighter duty than the one you are looking at, so can't comment on that.

I am extremely happy with my non-stainless black painted Logo EVO that I got over a decade ago. I only use the Logo for touring, it is an outstanding pannier rack. But for riding around home, I prefer a rack with wider platform on top, thus I use other racks for day to day use when not touring.

I was unaware they make one in stainless. Mine is painted black. I use black nail polish to touch up any wear spots.

If you plan to use a rack top bag, that narrow top may be a consideration.

What kind of bike is this going on? Some of the newer frames have moved the pannier mounting holes up higher. The logo works well with the rack mounts down low.
