Axle-mount rack fitting
Old Man Mountain Rear Fit Kit
Rear axle and hardware sets that let you fit an Old Man Mountain rack to the back of almost any bike, including full-suspension, carbon and e-bikes without rack eyelets.
Highlights
Why we rate it
Load goes to the axle
The rack's dropouts lock onto studs on the replacement axle, taking the strain off small frame bolts that were never designed for heavy cargo.
Higher rated capacity
With axle mounting, a Divide rack is rated to 33kg (70lb).
Thru-axle, QR or bolt-on
Choose from a long list of 12mm thru-axle kits, a quick-release skewer kit, or bolt-on kits for nutted axles, including one for Mahle hub-motor e-bikes.
Seatpost mount versions
Kits marked .S add a seatpost mount for the rack's upper attachment, ideal for frames without seatstay eyelets.
Fitting
Compatibility
Match the kit to your rear axle's length and thread pitch (or axle nut thread for bolt-on kits). Versions ending .S include a seatpost mount for the upper rack attachment. Fit Kits are for Old Man Mountain racks; the rack is sold separately.
