How much weight will a rear bike rack hold?
A rear bike rack will hold between 20 and 50 pounds. If you carry more than 50 pounds, consider a touring rack that can carry up to 80 pounds. The rack will attach to the braze-on mounts of your rear wheel. If your bike doesn't have a braze-on, you can use metal C-clamps or opt for a front-carry or handlebar rack.
How should I choose a bike bag?
A bike bag will attach to your front or rear rack with spring-loaded hooks or an elastic cord. The bag you choose should fit properly and securely, and the bag should not have contact with your heel when riding. You'll want a bag that will carry all your gear without weighing down the bike. You can divide your load between a front and back bag.
How do I keep my bike bag from swaying when I ride?
If your bike sways when riding with a bike bag, and it is attached securely, you should repack it with the heaviest items closest to the seat. This will help to prevent the sway caused by incorrect weight distribution.
