Racktime Topit 2.0 front rack.

Racktime Topit 2.0 front rack.

is anyone here running this rack? I just ordered one for my ‘90 Cannondale ST600. I’m hoping it will fit without interfering with my canti brakes. I think the saddle on mine is high enough that it will work. Transverse cable angle discussion notwithstanding, the brakes feel perfect with the saddle exactly where I have it now.

I think you might have to fiddle with the center mount a bit but it could probably be made to work

^^^ Thanks, I hope that’s the case. I can’t find any videos of the 2.0 version of the rack, with the y-shaped fork crown mounting bracket. Seems like a much better design than the old single strap bracket style. I’m just not sure how much more awkward it is to deal with the double strap.

The rack arrived today and it is a perfect fit! Really no hassles or modifications required. The brakes clear the bracket just fine. I’ve never had any Racktime gear before, but it seems super nice. Looks and feels like a quality piece of equipment.
