Schwinn Bicycle Seat Post Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just bought this rack at Target to go with my new Raleigh Detour bike because I commute to work and rely on it for daily errands. Like the other reviewers have stated, it does not stay in place with the included clips, but it's an easy fix. I had a left over rubber strip that typically is used in the place of the plastic rings that I put in its place (it was spare from a U-lock I installed). After I put in the piece of rubber, not only did it tighten correctly, it also didn't swing around from side to side because the rubber had grip that the plastic rings did not.
In all, the rack works exceptionally well, I was able to carry back a toaster oven strapped to the rack that was easily 2x1x1 feet in dimensions. My only complaint with it after getting it mounted is that it could stand to be longer, but if you have bungee cords in addition to the included cord, it should not really matter.
As an added bonus, the rack keeps the back of my shirt and pants from getting splash back from riding in rainy wet Seattle weather. It makes a good stand in for a fender on my bike. In addition, I also ended up buying a Bell trunk rack that strapped onto it, so it's become a pretty flexible and useful rack.
In short, if you can find a nice bit of rubber from another bike mounting kit, or can buy one elsewhere, it's a fantastic product. Otherwise as others have said, it's useless because the plastic clips included are exceptionally terrible.

Featuring the Schwinn brand Americans have trusted for over one hundred years this seat post rack utilizes the frame of the bicycle as a mount by which to store goods and transport for a bicyclist. Rather than relying on a basket or bag, a flat surface is offered to allow for larger bulky items or objects of unusual size to be strapped down and carried along behind and off the rider – where interference with control of the bicycle will not be a factor. This alleviates many of the safety concerns normally inherent with cycling with cargo.PTI Sports products are designed with safety as the first and foremost concern and are constructed of high quality parts and materials to prevent degradation over time. Thoroughly tested, our products last through years of use before they are recommended for replacement, ensuring safe cycling for years to come.
