Topeak Explorer Bike Rack with Spring – Reviews

I have been commuting with this rack on my Hybrid for over a month now and think it’s great. The integrated rack and bag feature is very convenient. Although the spring hinged part of the rack keeps my Topeak bag from being as secure as the rack w/o the spring. But if I don’t use my bag, which is rare, the spring would be handy.

This is a good product that works very well but I did not have the required places on my bike to attach it and we ended up drilling holes in the frame of my bike. The screws were not the right size for my bike and this left me needing more nuts. I do agree that it seemed to be the best one out there and it is very stable and easy to use. I am thrilled with it just know that it may take some adjustments to fit it to your bike.

This rack was as-advertised and easy to install, although I had to redo it to make sure it went far enough back to also function as a mud guard. My only minor complaint is that it’s designed to accommodate a particular brand of rear light/reflector mounted on the back, but I wish it was designed a little more generically to handle the light and reflector that I currently have mounted on my seat post.

I got this rack simply becuase it had the spring mounted holder in addition to the snap in system of the other Topeak rack. The slot is there for the Topeak specific bags to mount.. but for their cost I don’t think I will ever buy one, so I got this one with the spring.

My bike is a Fuji Sunfire 4.0 26in Hybrid and it went on no problems. The cap screws, washers, nuts are all chrome plated so they should last a while without rusting. Since I also had the frame mounts already welded on it was simply a matter of bending the horizontal support bars a bit and tightening everything up. There is no interference from my seat or the seat tube.

The rack is well made, the welds looks very nice (no spatter, voids etc) and the powder coat is nicely done. The rack even includes on inverted ‘T’ bracket at the end and several generic mounts for lights and reflectors at the rear of the rack. The stickers they put on the main support tubes are the only COSMETIC issue.. printing them on would have given it a much cleaner look.

Good value, good fit for my bike.
