Recommend me a front rack

[Imlach]

V brake will be fine.

Oh right I thought it might have supported on the canti studs as well. Well, time to save up then. Reckon that'd be the type I need. I'll make a nice wooden crate for it, stained dark.

They even built a frameset at one point around their front rack, did you ever see those? The "Pack Rat":

Yeah I was going to get a Pack Rat at one point but I found a bargain Cross Check and I prefer that frameset. I see a lot of Pack Rats for sale on Kleinanzeigen but they're often overpriced.

Soma make something similar. But the strut looping around the back of the fork crown I haven't seen before. Couldn't tell you, but it may be specific for that Raleigh?

The "looping" design is the bit I like!

Possibly made specifically for that bike yes.

Pretty sure it's a Blackburn actually. You can see the embossed lettering on the middle rail.

Type in "Jim Blackburn" front rack into google images and a few come up.

I just did, indeed a Jim Blackburn. You should be able to find one somewhere, I think?
