Hello

I've plenty of experience with low-rider front racks on my expedition bike, but I am building a retro lightweight tourer at present and am interested in (or thinking about) using a randonneur front rack. Has anyone here had any experience with either Nitto racks (specifically the M-18 model for use with caliper brakes) or the Gilles Berthoud version? I realize it's an off chance, but I thought I'd ask.
