The price is so nice on those. And the 32” are crazy light. I am trying to figure out what hoops to get for my 32” build and these are super intriguing as long as they can hold up to some medium singletrack.
very amused to see folks coming back around to rear racks, i never really got into buttrockets and now i can claim i was ahead of the curve
yeah the flatpack is weird, i wonder if sklar plans to offer different length legs? that’s the main reason i think for the pass&stow front racks being a bolt-together design

Yeah, my next poop.in a barn will be back on the freeload rack I reckon.
Conceptually, I really like Open’s bikes but they always have such short reach.
Are there any deserving 2.6" tires for this bike? I wonder what they envisioned?

The rim IS a disc, the biggest practical disc on the wheel, and theoretically it should be as large as possible
