SALSA CYCLES NEW RACK-LOCK | A Seat Clamp That Smartly Solves Rear Rack Mounting
An expansion part with functional beauty, integrating a rack mount and seat clamp.
You want to customize your bike for touring or bikepacking, but your frame doesn't have enough rack mounts. The SALSA CYCLES NEW RACK-LOCK offers a simple solution to this problem.
The rack mount is integrated into the seat clamp body, allowing you to secure the front struts of your rack with M5 bolts to a 34mm wide mounting section. This allows you to build a clean-looking cargo system without the need for additional adapters.
The main body is made of high-precision AL-6061 aluminum, and the pivots and bolts are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. While lightweight, it boasts high durability, making it reliable for everyday use to long-distance touring.
The black anodized finish and laser-etched logo embody Salsa's signature blend of practicality and aesthetics. Though primarily a cargo-carrying component, this item enhances the overall finish of your bike.
