19,000 yen until the 13th! Thank you for viewing! This is a listing for a tubus logo stainless steel rack. I purchased it in a Tokyo shop in November for 29,700 yen, but I've had a custom titanium rack made by a carrier builder overseas, so this one is new and unused. Tubus carriers come in three materials: chromoly, titanium, and stainless steel. The logo version in stainless steel is the most durable, heavy-duty specification. It's the heaviest of the three, but at 800g according to the catalog specifications, it's lighter than other carriers in the same class from other companies. The maximum load is 26kg, but since the carrier can be mounted with M6 bolts, if your frame has direct eyelets on the frame end or drum-type eyelets, you can drill a 5mm hole and tap it for M6 to install it. Although not recommended by the manufacturer, it seems you can load about twice as much. I was expecting a shiny silver color because it's stainless steel, but it's a slightly dull silver, and when compared to other titanium carriers and titanium bottle cages, it's almost the same color. A magnet reacted to it, although it didn't stick, so it's definitely stainless steel. Stainless steel models are quite expensive in Japan, and while they seem cheaper on overseas通販 (online stores), the customs fees and domestic consumption tax make the price about the same. In fact, if you dislike waiting a month and a half for free shipping and use a paid shipping service, the shipping costs are quite high, and the customs fees are also high, making it quite expensive. How about taking this opportunity? The color would suit bikes like RIVENDELL, SURLY, neo-randonneurs, and gravel bikes with tan-sidewall tires. Regarding shipping, the size is large, and it may not be possible to ship from a convenience store. I will need some time as I don't have time to take it to the shipping company on weekdays. I am not considering lowering the price at this time. I'm also thinking of forcibly attaching it to a friend's bicycle and taking them camping. Thank you.
