Subway 2 pannier racks

SavageEarth · July 2013

Hi, could anyone recommend a rear pannier rack that fits the Carrera Subway 2. I was sold one by a Halfords monkey who assured me that it 'would definitely fit'. It was the BikeHut brand and is totally useless, it doesn't fit at all. Any recommendations for front rack too?

Anyone got any advice on this??

You'll need a disc rack, something like this would do your job.

I've got this bike and am trying to find a front rack that will fit the disc brakes.

does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks

If you have fixing points on the rear dropouts, the Topeak racks are good. Eg.

This one has its special fixing for their own rackpacks but any bags should fit. I have their disc specific mountain rack on my sons bike and it fits fine.

Thanks mrfpb, but it's a front rack that i'm after.

Start your own thread then rather than hijacking this one.

How am I highjacking this one by asking a simple question?

You shouldn't need this explaining. Poor forum etiquette, Google it.

The Topeak beam racks are good, also qr if that's a benefit to you?

I was replying to the OP. He wants a rear rack.

I have Blackburn on the rear of my disc braked commuter, you may want longer bolts than Blackburn supply though as they are a bit short into the dropout.

I have had this one fitted to my Subway 2 since I got my bike eighteen months ago. I also got the bag that it is designed to work with, the bag just slides in and clicks to lock into place. The rack has a slightly wider fitting on the near side to allow for the width of the disc brake.
Very happy with it.
