@ascentale @bobjonkman @bikenite #BikeNite A2. Not familiar with front racks, but 40 lbs seems too much weight for the front. (it's quite unwieldy, although do-able, on the back).

@bobjonkman asks about strong front racks that attach to your frame:
Q2. Are there any after-market frame-mounted front racks? Something I can bolt on? Substantial enough for that 18kg (40lb) sack of potatoes?
I've seen a few bikeshare bikes with an L-shaped front rack that's welded to the frame, but welding is too much for me.
