This video totally gave off those retro 1970s homemade film vibes-it was so glamorous, like a real throwback! Loved the review. Now I’m seriously considering saving up for a front rack, but it’s funny because it costs more than what I originally paid for my Trek Multitrack 7200! Guess that’s the price of upgrading, right? But honestly, the whole setup looks so good, it might just be worth it.

I'm glad you like the vibe! Im not crazy about the current KZitem aesthetic so I'm trying to do something a little different. Also I only own a really old DSLR and a GoPro so the leaning into the vibe beats buying new equipment. Here's hoping a few folks dig it.

How do you find the lower center of gravity when mounting the bags low? Does it make a difference in handling?

Yes, this bike has a low trail geometry which makes the front end a little twitchy when unloaded. Having the load centered along the front axle (low position) makes for a significant improvement in handling and since it's a touring bike is probably what the designers intended. The rear matters less and I usually run bags in the high position just because other people in my household use those bags too and I don't want to modify them. Of course, this totally depends on the bike and type of riding.

Thanks! I waffled back and forth for like a year before pulling the trigger. My old front rack got a crack in the eyelet and I took it as a sign!

pronouncing it "nit-oh" and not "neat-o" as well as calling braze-ons "brass-ons" is making me want to call the police

Just because of this comment I am going to do my next video in French and then someone will probably actually call the police.
