    I still use my rear rag bags but more for stuff like repair kit, spare tube, poncho, etc. Most of the stuff I’m actively using is attached to or in the front rack.

      The portola rear rack looks way more sturdy than what’s on my Aventon Aventure.2 because it’s welded onto the frame. I wish mine was like that. I’d trust it a lot more, especially on these super bumpy barely maintained pavement and dirt roads I live off. I guess it would be good enough for repair kit and stuff though. Good call.

        Supposedly it’s rated for 120 lbs but there are other racks out there that can hold quite a bit and aren’t welded. Priority sells the Axion Streamliner DLX which supports 110 lbs for example.
