Yep. Need to have discs/fenders/rack co-exist, front and back. This is non-trivial. I read that Neil of CrazyGuy actually had Co-Motion add some custom braze-ons to make this easier. Hope I don't have to go that far.
I sometimes tour w/ panniers (front and back), sometimes w/ Bob. Need to support both.
