Wow! The pictures just don't do his racks justice! Though it's been said many times, many ways. . . (think: Bing Crosby) Gary's racks are an absolute top-notch work of artistry! The fabrication and color matching is just superb! I guarantee, anyone who would like to have extra storage space on the bike without the confines of a top trunk, this is an absolutely "must have" farkle! Think about it, when has there been a time when you wanted to or would've like to have carried an item that is either oversized or just won't fit into one of your hard bags? This rack opens up a whole new dimension to having the ability to carry extra items! You can bungee strap or tie-down almost anything to it. It is extremely versatile in it's potential uses from what I can see. Obviously, you're not going to carry heavy-weight objects, but for those odd, or oversized items, it just can't be beat.
And, Garauld was excellent in working around my "special needs" and was patient and responsive to all of my questions. Whats more, he even had the integrity to send along a partial refund check from the pre-paid order becuase the production cost was cheaper than originally planned! Thank you, Gary!
I know on my next trip to Maine, I'll definitely have more space for clam chowder!
