NITTO × RIVENDELL 52F-2 basket rack｜A masterpiece front rack that epitomizes beauty and practicality

More than just for carrying. A rack that completes the look of your entire bicycle.

The 52F-2 basket rack, born from a joint development between NITTO and RIVENDELL, is a front rack that pursues the ideal form of a basket carrier. This special model embodies the functional beauty sought by RIVENDELL, brought to life by NITTO's esteemed manufacturing technology from Japan.

By meticulously crafting slender 9mm chromoly tubes with fillet welding, both excellent strength and a beautiful form are achieved. The dull plating finish, with its unique understated luster, naturally blends with everything from classic bicycles to modern touring bikes.

It pairs well with WALD 137 and 139 baskets, and since both the top plate and stays are slide-adjustable, it flexibly fits many frames. It provides reliable carrying capacity for everything from daily shopping to long-distance touring.
