Old Man Mountain racks stand out as the most versatile options on the market. They can be mounted on full - suspension mountain bikes, gravel bikes, road bikes, fat bikes, and even tri - bikes. These racks have been tested and proven reliable in the most extreme earthly environments (we're still aiming to get them to the moon!). They've accompanied riders through Iceland's harsh winters, supported countless GDMBR riders, and circumnavigated the globe. The question now is, where will you take it? If you want to use our rack on a bike not designed for racks or swap it between multiple bikes, a Fit Kit is all you need. The Divide is a remarkable product. It can fit up to 3 - inch tires with room for fenders. You can mount it either at the front or rear. Crafted from 6061 aluminum, it's lightweight, stiff, and strong. The main rack frame uses 1/2″ (13 mm) diameter tubing for durability, and the 3/8″ (10 mm) diameter pannier rails fit all panniers. The low pannier rail makes loading and unloading panniers a breeze, even with gear on the deck. The deck, measuring 3.9″ x 10.5″ (100 mm x 266 mm), has slots for easy gear lashing and holes for mounting a light. The dropouts are height - adjustable to keep the weight low on the bike and fit various tire sizes. The Divide comes standard with eyelet mount and has optional fit kits for thru - axle or QR mounting. When eyelet - mounted, it has a load capacity of 25 kgs. For more adventurous trips, our thru - axle or QR Fit Kits can be used. They mount the rack to the axle and boost the load capacity to an impressive 33 kgs! It's powder - coated in a sleek black shade, comes with stainless - steel mounting hardware, and has a lifetime warranty. Note: the standard DIVIDE rack fits most regular rack mounts on touring/commuting frames.

Using your Old Man Mountain Divide Cargo Pannier Rack is quite simple. First, decide if you want to mount it at the front or rear of your bike. If your bike has regular rack mounts like on a touring or commuting frame, the standard eyelet mount will work great. If you need to use it on a bike without proper mounts or want to swap it between bikes, use the Fit Kit. When loading your panniers, the low pannier rail makes it easy to put gear in and take it out. You can also lash additional gear to the deck using the slots provided. Remember to adjust the height of the dropouts according to your tire size to keep the weight low on the bike. For more adventurous rides, consider using the thru - axle or QR Fit Kits to increase the load capacity. As for maintenance, since it's powder - coated, a simple wipe with a damp cloth should keep it clean. Check the stainless - steel mounting hardware regularly for any signs of loosening and tighten them if needed. This rack comes with a lifetime warranty, so you can enjoy worry - free cycling.
