| Delta Mega Rack Post Porter Seat Post Rack with Pannier Support by Delta Buy it, you'll love it. |
| I was tired of carrying a bag on my daily commute, so I bought this rack. It's great! I read reviews prior to putting it on. The piece of rubber inner tube between the mount and the seat post is a good idea. The rack is solid and carries everything I need including: saddle bag, tools, U lock and cables, rain pants rain coat, NiteRider charger, and lunch. I weighed myself on the bathroom scale then filled the saddlebag with everything I needed to be sure I didn't go over the 25 lb. weight limit. All of my stuff weighs 19 lbs., so I can even buy a few groceries or put shoes in there if necessary. The rack is long enough so that my heals do not strike the bags; a problem that I had in the past with other racks. the pannier supports keep the wheels clear. An added and unexpected bonus of carrying all of my things on my bike rather than my back is that on the weekends when I use my light road bike I feel really strong. Also, my back isn't sweaty when I get to work. I love this product. All bike commuters should buy it. |
| Delta Mega Rack Post Porter Seat Post Rack with Pannier Support by Delta Couple of Design Flaws |
| I found it very important to cut up an old inner tube to use as a sleeve to keep the rack in place. The manufacturer should have included a rubber spacer. Also the bolts screw into the aluminum rack and are therefore prone to stripping. They should have seated a nut to prevent this issue. I have to set the grocery panniers as far forward on the rack as possible to keep them from rubbing the wheels as the rack sways. If you have a bike with rear suspension, either get a new bike or this rack. If you have a hardtail bike, go with a conventional rack. |
| Delta Mega Rack Post Porter Seat Post Rack with Pannier Support by Delta Lightweight and strong |
| This rack has worked well for me since I got it. I wanted a light aluminum rack for my soft-tail that I could put some WALD racks on. The one I got had nice thick matte black paint, lightweight formed tube and sheet aluminum welded construction. The side racks attached easily and it has stayed put quite well. |

I've had the Delta Post Porter for 2 years and have had loaded to the max for commuting, mountain biking, and touring. I have never had a problem with the rack not staying put. But the trick is to take an old inner tube and cut a piece off to use as a shim. Then tighten the screws down in opposite sides. I haven't used large size panniers yet, but my large trunk back with drop down panniers works great on the rack.
My only complaint is that the rack sits higher than standard racks which causes the weight to sit higher which effects stability. However, if a stem mounted rack is only option, it's something to keep in mind.
I prefer this rack to the quick release rack because the screw mount is more of a deterrent to theft than a quick release. But I still loop my cable lock through the pannier supports, tire, seat hole, and frame. |

| I purchased this for use on my commuter bike, and found it to be an excellent rack. The "one size fits all" clamp really did fit my very oversized seat post, and the rack stays where you put it. Very good product. |
