| Sep 18, 2012 at 14:59 | comment | added | Jahaziel | your comment makes me rethink a simple design of mine: I've been thinking of building a custom rear rack for my hardtail-front suspension only MTB commuter. I will have to add some sort of suspension or change the materials used... Who knows, maybe there I make the next breaktrhough... heheh. | |

With a transport-oriented full-suspension frame (of some sort), perhaps the problems would be fewer and less severe. | |

I (try to) commute in a very hilly city with completely busted streets, a tipical commuter here has nothing to do, it would not stand the "offroad" streets and it doesn't have the gearing, but a MTB that has the wheels and suspension can not take the fenders nor panniers required. | |
