The Swing makes the attachment of panniers to a suspension fork possible. The carrier is attached to the fork crown allowing the suspension to operate without interference. Not for all forks but definitely the best option out there. Contact me via email before ordering if you are not sure it will fit your fork.
If you are considering touring on a bike with a suspension fork this is one of the better methods for increasing your carrying capacity. Because the rack is mounted to the fork crown and headset and, therefore, does not transfer the weight to the fork blades, the feel and function of the fork will not be affected. For more information and for alternatives to using a front rack when touring with a suspension fork, see my article on off-road touring via the home page.
Tubus has been perfecting the art of rack design and manufacturing for over 20 years. They use thin walled high quality tubing that results in an extremely strong, stiff and light rack. The racks are extensively and continuously tested to ensure rack reliability and longevity.
All Tubus racks have a comprehensive 10 year guarantee including a 3 year mobile guarantee that will replace your rack wherever you are in the world.
