looks and works great, price was good compared to other's. problem I had was the screw's were to small to fit anything on the back. only way for it to fit was on the shaft screw of the back tire. drill a bigger hole on the rack rocker part. fit like it should. that's why I down graded the quality. you might have to improvise to fit your fat tire.

Maybe it will fit your bike. Just because it says disk brake and fat tire doesn't mean it will fit your disk brakes and fat tire. Since it said Fits 170-190mm rear spacing, I very carefully measured the bicycle frame and sure enough the eyelets for bolting on a rack were 190mm. Perfect right? Wrong! I suppose the inside of the rack tubes are 190mm but with the bracket bolted on the outside of the tubes (as pictured) the dimension is more like 210mm. Luckily I have a well equipped shop so I found some spacers to compensate. That didn't work because my eyelets were up a ways on the frame. This raised the rack to the point that it hit the seat. Back to the drawing board. This thing wouldn't fit around my disk brake with the angle bracket. No matter how I positioned it there wasn't clearance. I finally just took that bracket off and then I could get one of the down tubes bolted to the bike frame. I hope you are mechanically inclined and have a nice selection of stainless steel metric bolts as I do. Bottom line is I wish I would have purchased this item and saved $30: Ibera Bike Touring Carrier Cycling Disc Brake Rear Pannier Rack NEW RA5 Read full review

It is a good quality rack, BUT the advertising which says it is a universal fit for all fat tire bikes is false. I have a Mongoose 4" tire bike with very few accessory eyelets built into the frame. Contrary to the advertising, the bottom of this rack is designed to fit only on a quick release axle or on accessory eyelets. My Mongoose bike has neither. So in order to get it to fit onto my axle, I had to drill out (enlarge) the holes on the bottom extenders, which compromised the integrity of the strength of the unit. Also the top stabilizer arms are made to attached only to accessory eyelets. I had to drill these out too and attach them to the bolt that is my seat clamp. Again, I had to enlarge the holes so much that the integrity of the top stabilizer arms is questionable. If not for these attachment issues, the rack is a very good, very strong and lightweight unit.Read full review

Needed brackets for solid axle not skewers .They make one not in kit. Sold separately and unavailable everywhere. Contact Axiom got runaround. Contacr again with part number no response. For the price should be included. Nice sturdy rack just don't expect the support from Axiom. Made my own brackets. The rack is quality made and strong.

A great bike rack for my fat-tire ride. Had to do some mods to the lower brackets to clear the disc brake actuating arm, but after that smooth sailing. Even worked with my Portland fenders. Definitely would recommend this product! Ran it through the mountains in Alaska just to make sure and now I'm sure!
