Panniers & Disc Brakes ?

[summerdays]

Just to confirm that the LBS did manage to fit the pannier rack onto my bike without the disk brakes being a problem. But it probably varies from bike to bike.

Glad it worked out ok for you

My rack and mudguards will be fitted to my Mountain Bike on Wednesday, it'l probably look a bit weird to see it at first but i'l put a pic on when its done

Hi there, go easy on me I'm new to this.

I'm after a rear rack for my giant escape m zero which has disc brakes. I've already tried the topeak super tourist Dx....the one one meant for disc brakes! I bought it Sunday from edinburgh cycles and took it back tonight, the rack was far to wide for my liking....totally unimpressed.

Does anybody know of a closer fitting rack which would fit a giant escape?

Thanks

Or use something like the Tubus QR-axle mounting system which seems to move the rack away from the area that the brakes are in.

Did you have a crack at this in the end? Looking to do pretty much the same thing with a tubus logo + QR mounts.
