what is the best seatpost rack for this pannier?

I have a kale off electric and it seems like it was made for it. It has a very throughout system for attaching to your bike.

You're probably good to go with a suspended rack IF you have a fender over your rear wheel. The bike frame plus the fender mounts will likely keep this bag away from your spokes.

Only with some heavy modification of the seat post mount as it's designed for smaller diameter tubing posts. If you are comfortable drilling metal and have a quality hardware store nearby then yes. If not, look towards a pannier bag setup/DIY mount a plastic crate.

I don't personally have panniers on my bike. But there seems to be room enough to accommodate them. without cover being too big.

Prodeco redesigned the rear of the new Phantoms. They are coming out next month. They will allow you to mount pannier bags on the back. I will have them available shortly. Kind Regards, Jack

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

Any standard rack will fit this bike. it has fender mounts at the rear dropouts where you can mount a rack. Unfortunately, there are no braze on mounts at the tops of the seat stays, so you have to get creative. Some racks come with mounting clamps that clamp around the tops of the seat stays. That's what I did for my daughter's bike.

I don't know about the rack, but I would avoid the panniers at all cost -- the plastic covers of the bolts inside promptly fall off, leaving the bolts exposed; they will then shred to bits whatever you try to carry in the panniers. Moreover, Axiom does not back up their products (I had only had mine a short time before they started shredding the contents of the panniers, but they would not do anything about it; I ended up getting Ortlieb panniers instead). Bottom line: I would avoid Axiom products altogether if I were you.

My answer is gonna be pure gut feeling. I would not hang any heavy accessories on to a carbon seat post as these are probably designed to take workloads from top towards the bottom, any other load pulling in any other direction such as a rack where someone could accidentally be attracted to sit on and hence could break your carbon seatpost. If you really need a rack, I would replace your carbon seatpost with a steel one. Minimum weight loss if you are gonna intall a rack.

These panniers fit on all of my racks, and come with adapters for various sizes of tubing. There should be no need to buy a specific type of rack.

I am with Brian S. on this, you will need a "Seat Post Mounted" Rack for your bike.

Unfortunately the bike is not made with permanent "braze-ons" for a rear rack which i assume is what you are referring to. I have a rack on mine with panniers and had to buy the following parts from Amazon and it works like a champ. Its so sturdy that my 5 year old sits on it on a ride down the street.

I am not sure what kind of seat post adapter you have but something like this might work:Sunlite Alloy Seat Post Clamp with Rack Mount, 31.8mm

Concur with all the other responses. My panniers are flush with the top of the rack. I think it's a very good design. I bike 10 miles one way and my panniers carry my work clothes no problem. Also the rack lets me bungee cord additional items on top of the rack (lunch box).

Yes, that is true. The bike has a rear rack mounted to it already which is for the battery. Panniers are not an option on this bike. I recommend to my customers who wish to carry items while riding to procure some type of basket that easily hooks onto the handlebar or use a backpack.

With the rear battery, panniers are limited for the back. If you really want to carry cargo I recommend a front rack compatible with disc brakes. I installed the Thule front rack (tour model) with side rails and can carry 50+ pounds of groceries. It also helps to balance the bike better against the rear battery plus you can keep an eye on what you carry.

If your bike doesn't have threaded holes at the top of the seat stays near the seat post you'll need to buy a bracket to mount it. This one worked for me: BIKE RACK PART SUNLT MONOSTAY ADPTR RR1p
