Description
The Tubus Duo Lowrider is a front carrier for panniers which mounts to fork eyelets on touring bikes. Lowriders like this one are an excellent use of your bike’s carrying capacity. And we see more and more of these on gravel bikes for those extra-long bikepacking trips!
Compatible with almost every pannier system (including ORTLIEB) the Duo easily carries 2x front panniers or gravel packs. Providing steering stability & a great solution for those on smaller bikes with limited rear rack carrying capacity.
TUBUS DUO COMPATIBILITY & SPECS
The Duo mounts on the eyelets on both the inside & outside of the front fork (such as is found on touring specific Surly, Vivente or Soma bikes). Having eyelets on both sides of the fork is not necessarily common, if your bike only has outside eyelets, or no eyelets at all, the TUBUS TARA will work for you.
The Duo cannot be mounted on a carbon fork, or a spring suspension fork.
Fitting a lowrider like this on to your bike is what we would describe as ‘moderately difficult’. So if you are a Melbourne local we recommend letting our mechanics fit it for you! We keep these racks in store so come on by with your bike and let us make your life easier.
