Tubus Roundstay
Features:
- Tubus racks fit most bikes without needing any modifications, but some bike manufacturers place their seatstay rack mounting eyelets at a height that causes an upper rack mounting stay to interfere with the action of your rear brake.
- Tubus uses solid aluminum rods for their upper mounting stays.
- Aluminum mounting stays are relatively easy to bend.
- If you find that a brake lever arm wants to occupy the same space as the mounting stay, it is OK to bend the mounting stay, so it will not be in the way.
- Be sure to bend only on the round portion of the stay.
- Never bend the flat portion where they have drilled the mounting hole -- that will weaken the stay at the point where it changes from flat to round.
- I would suggest you use a piece of thick coat hanger wire and bend a template first, to be sure of the shape you will need, before you bend the mounting stay.
- If possible, use a vise, pad the jaws to reduce scratches, and you will have a lot of control when making your bends.
