will this rack be a good choice to mount a child seat that clamps? I have the bellelli pepe clamp seat with a weight limit of 50lbs

I don't think 50 pounds is too much weight, as the rack is very sturdy, but I am not sure if it wouldn't be better if the top was a bit wider for more stability

We ur head this seat for my 11 year old daugher. She has a 24". Mountain bike. It worked well. I' not sure if it will fit on what you described.

Yes I believe it will.I have carried 2 gallons of milk,or tea on it,seemed to do fine.Just got to have a strong bike to mount it on,with a good rear axle.

Hiya, Hmmm. I think that would depend on how steep of an angle. The "clamps" on this are straight, so if you're really depending on this for full weight support, I'd be hesitant to put it on unless the angle were slight (&lt; 10-20%)

The padded clamping mechanism is 3.5" wide, so if you have that much clearance below the saddle then it would work. My opinion, this is a great product for the price. It's heavy duty, well made, lightweight and portable. I am very satisfied that I purchased this workstand.

I have a 50 inch that weighs about 60 lbs, this mount is very sturdy, I'm not sure what the weight rating is but if you get the lag bolts into studs I'd say you'd be fine.

This rack has three mounting holes on the strut, on my bicycle, I used the shortest option (on an '80s Schwinn tandem-26" wheels). It should fit with no problems. It's not the "beefiest" rack, but it should hold 20 pounds easily.

It depends on how high and how securely you mount it. I'd look at alternate ideas because I think reaching up to the upper rack will be too difficult and there may be too much swaying. Best of luck.

I suspect the actual rack frame may hold that amount of weight but the loop frames where the tires sit are not that sturdy so I would be reluctant to carry that much especially as the rack will bounce a bit while driving. I think there are other options. Good luck.

No problem. I have mine on it and it could hold more. It's very sturdy and can be adjusted height and width.

Yes, the rack you are using would likely be fine. The mounting hardware is flexible enough to accommodate just about any sort of rack. The Topeak rack you have has a weight rating of 40 pounds which will be you main limitation. Make sure you keep that in mind when loading the baskets. Generally though, a regular steel rack does not have a weight rating much higher than that.

This rack should do the trick. It works best if your seat post is angled back somewhat and not straight up. It fits a large range of seat post diameters too ands is quick release.

I'm not sure of the accual weight limit but the quality of the material used it will hold any bike you can put on it. I hauled 4 adult 28 inch bikes from Illinois to Florida and back and the thing didn't flex at all. The rack is really built like a tank.

The rack is very sturdy and well-made. As long as you balance the load, you should be OK. I recommend the rack and would buy again if I had the need.

If by that you mean in a fashion *other* than having the weight centered around the clamp, yes it can. None of my bikes weigh more than 21 pounds or so, but I've had bikes secured upside down, at weird angle, almost at the bottom bracket clamping on the seat tube, etc, and it does the job just fine. The handle used to clamp down can take awhile to get tightened properly, but never gives me the impression it would overtighten and break. So essentially, yes if you are doing other things that involve positioning the bike awkwardly you will be fine. It won't let you simply swing it into position like a good shop stand, but it can be locked into place just about anyway you like!

Ivy, both of the bikes i have have a horizontial top bar. Given each clamp that hold the bikes are adjustable, I would assume you can make it adjustable. To be on the safe side, I would look for a different style of bike rack to use.Good Luck,E. Daniels

Yes, as long as there is enough space for the clamp to be attached to the seat post. The clamp needs a bit more than 2 inches of space.

Donald,It looks like the center locking clamp will attach with no issue, but the lower hook that is used to stablize the pannier may or may not stay put on the lower part of the rack. Based on the rack image, it looks like most hooks would have an issue so I am not 100% positive if this pannier would work with this rack. If you can get this to work, they have been great and I am going on 3 years without any issues.Tom

I purchased this rack in May 2014. I have two Schwinn Hybrid Cruisers I mount on it with no problem. They weigh 46 lbs each. I don't know the maximum the rack will hold.I would have to get the rack down from storage in the garage and install it to give you an exact measurement, but it is no more than 24"
