Evening all, does anyone have a rear rack fitted to their model 20 (mines a 59 if that makes a difference)? Just wondering where the secure to, I have one on my G3LS and that is secured through the top of the mudguard as well as the sides.
Many thanks

Re: Rear rack
I'm looking for one too, to go in place of the pillion pad currently bolted through the mudguard. I don't want to drill anymore so will probably have to be a bespoke one that picks up the same holes? unless there's one already made?
Thanks Shaun

Re: Rear rack
The club spares lists show 2 .. one 1959, one 1959 and later.
They fix to the the rear mudguard support struts from the top of the rear shockers ..

Re: Rear rack
Thanks Taid but they look like they bolt to the side of the mudguard and I'm looking to utilise the pillion seat holes.
Also I'm looking for a slimmer profile that's just wider than the mudguard like these, but in black finish and I'd have to sort out brackets that work with the holes I've already got.

I want to keep the option of the pillion seat, but doubt it'll get used much as the mother in law lives a few doors down from us, so chance of me and the missus sneaking past are much slimmer than me these days!!

Re: Rear rack
Paul, in addition to the club racks you can either pick up a auto jumble used or new Craven carrier https://craven-equipment.co.uk/index.php/bikeracks but they have to have bespoke brackets made.

Re: Rear rack
If you are buying 2nd (or more) hand, be aware that the 55/56 and maybe earlier have a wider spread on the legs ..
