Tubus bike racks provide a foundation for panniers and touring luggage. Front and rear options help riders carry commuting essentials or distribute equipment across a loaded bike for longer tours and multi-day journeys.
Why Choose a Tubus Bike Rack?
Tubus specialises in racks for bike-mounted luggage, with designs for different bikes, carrying positions and loads. The right rack creates secure attachment points for panniers and can help balance equipment between the front and rear of a touring setup.
What to Look for in Tubus Bike Racks
- Bike and wheel compatibility: Check frame or fork mounting points, wheel size, axle type and clearance around tyres, mudguards and disc brakes.
- Position and load capacity: Choose a front or rear rack suited to the intended load, and stay within every limit specified for the rack, bike and mounting points.
- Pannier fit and clearance: Confirm that hooks suit the rack tubing and that the fitted panniers provide adequate heel, wheel and ground clearance.
Use the specified mounting hardware and check each fixing regularly, particularly during a loaded tour. Pair a Tubus bike luggage rack with compatible pannier bags, and read our cycling bags guide for help planning a complete luggage setup.
