Our side racks have been making a name for themselves for over a year: essential, practical and light the “normal” ones, our beloved first product, sturdy and eclectic the “Heavy Duty” ones;
and now the family expands with the “Solo” ones.
Designed and built for solo use, although of course they do not prevent carrying a passenger while remaining mounted, they move the luggage almost 14 cm toward the center of gravity making the load easier to handle in all situations and allowing more immediate access to the handles, probably no longer used by a passenger but still indispensable for lifting the bike after falls and slips.
If you may miss the flexibility offered by the Heavy Duty in moving the luggage longitudinally or their huge load capability, don’t worry, you won’t loose their strength:
the three attachment points and 4 mm thickness, together with a less pronounced outward protusion, make the Solo durable and unobtrusive in all those situations where as a pair you are not likely to run into.
And as always for GWX products they are also pleasing to the eye by blending nicely into the lines of the tail covers.
A couple of details remain to be clarified, but the prototypes are already being tested on the road … and off it … and have already earned a special place in our hearts!
