Out of the Sierra Madre Mountains – Old Man Mountain (OMM) has a rich history in Mountain Bike touring racks that reflect their company philosophy – “don’t discriminate, innovate”. That’s why OMM built the first mountain touring racks designed to work with suspension mountain bikes and why they’ve brought that mind-set to their racks made for Fat-Bikes. OMM has been making racks specifically to fit the Surly Pugsley for years and with the introduction of the Moonlander, they took their recently redesigned Sherpa rear rack and married it to a new offset bracket and hardware, custom made for the Moonlander’s girth and frame offset.
Installation was a snap. Six bolts was all it took to attach the rack to our Fat-Bike.com Testlander. We’ll see how the rack works, in a variety of load configurations, over the next month (or so) and report back.
I can not find this anywhere, not even on OMMs web site.
hi Steve O,
John here from OMM, we have sherpas ready for fat bikes, and will be updating our site to refect this right away, if you need any info at all don’t hesitate to contact me, and we will get you going , thanks John OMM
One 2 minute call to John and mine is on the way.
John,
Thank you for taking time to listen to your customers questions. Please concider the popularity of the moonlander and the value to you and us riders to actually build a rack the correct width to give the set up a clean look and give us a little more storage width on top of the rack.
Good Riding
Tim
