Description
The Tubus Cargo Classic is a single rail rear rack designed for carrying panniers on the sides & cargo on the top like rack-top bags or baskets. The Cargo is based on the original Tubus rack design first made in 1988. With a wide platform for strapping your gear on top, lower pannier rails for increased stability and handling when your bike is loaded up and the widest tyre clearance of any Tubus rack, the Cargo Classic is a touring powerhouse.
The Cargo Classic is compatible with almost all pannier bag mounting systems (including ORTLIEB’S).
Tubus Cargo Classic Compatibility & Specs
Like all Tubus Classic models, this rack is compatible with the QUICK RELEASE ADAPTOR allowing you to install the rack on your bike even if you don’t have mounting holes in your frame. If you have mounting holes in your frame for a rear rack, the Tubus Cargo Evo will work for you.
Compatible with both rim brake & disc brake bikes.

Installation
Installing Tubus racks often involves bending & cutting the provided roundstays to suit the geometry of your bike & ensure the rack is level once installed. If you are local to Melbourne, we encourage you to bring your bike in to our Richmond bike shop so that our mechanics can fit your Tubus rack to your bike for you, as it can be a difficult job at home without tools.
