FAQs
Does this fit on my gravel bike with 32c tires?
No, the Topeak Roadie Rack is specifically engineered for road tires up to 700 x 25c.
What bags work with this rack?
The rack is designed to work with any Topeak RX TrunkBag EX luggage using the RX QuickTrack system.
Can I use this for heavy touring?
No, this rack is rated for a maximum load of 15lbs and is intended for lighter road riding loads.
Do I need special tools to install it?
You will need standard hex wrenches to adjust the mounting bolts and struts during the initial setup.
Will this scratch my carbon frame?
The rack uses straps to secure to the frame, but we recommend checking the contact points periodically and ensuring no grit is trapped underneath.
Troubleshooting
Rack feels loose after installation
Re-tighten the seatstay straps and ensure the center bolt clip is fully seated against the bridge.
Rack platform is not level
Adjust the length of the support struts individually until the top plate sits parallel to the ground.
Bag is difficult to slide into the QuickTrack mount
Check that the rack is not bent and ensure the track rails are free of debris or grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires patience to ensure the rack is centered and level. Start by attaching the center bolt clip, then thread the adjustable seatstay straps securely around your frame. Use the adjustable struts to level the platform before fully tightening all hardware.
Compatibility Note: This rack is strictly designed for road bikes with tires no wider than 25mm. Attempting to use larger tires may result in frame rubbing or damage.
Care: To maintain the finish and structural integrity, clean the rack periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap. Regularly check that the bolts and mounting straps remain tight, especially if you frequently carry the maximum 15lb load.
