## Description

Take your ride further with the Schwinn Deluxe Alloy Rear Bike Rack – engineered for convenience, designed for life on two wheels. Whether you're commuting across town or heading out for the weekend, this lightweight alloy rack gives you the freedom to bring what you need. It mounts easily to your seat post and comes with shims to help fit for posts thinner than 1.25”. Steel side rails are ideal for mounting pannier bags, with tie down points that help secure heavier loads. The durable alloy construction keeps weight low while supporting up to 20 pounds of cargo, from backpacks and bags to everyday gear. Built to fit most adult bikes, this rack is your go-to upgrade for reliable, on-bike storage.

Review: Legitimately surprised at the quality for the price - I wanted something light and basic to throw on my mountain bike that wouldn't impact me using it as a mountain bike, but would allow me to also use it to carry a bag if I use it to commute anywhere. This fit my bike perfect, took 30 seconds to install, is extremely sturdy feeling and will fit my needs perfectly. It isn't very long, so it won't hold a ton of things. But it can strap a single bag to it no problem. I particularly like the bars that hang down because it provides a little barrier from the objects you're carrying interfering with your rear tire. It's also extremely light. I wish I had weighed it out of the box, but when the box arrived it was so light that I thought there was a mistake in shipping at first. It's entirely unnoticeable when attached to the bike and still allows me to use it as a mountain bike without hindering performance.
Review: A good rack and easy to install - This is a sharp-looking, strong, inexpensive (at just over $10), and easy-to install product. Certainly worth more than I paid for it. After reading the reviews, I was a little bit concerned that this would be difficult to install. It absolutely was not. I removed the bolts all the way, sprayed them with WD40, as another reviewer suggested, tried 3 shims which was too tight, tried two shims which was just right, and bolted it onto the bike. It fit so tight that I was able to turn the bicycle seat by tugging on the rack, so I had to tighten the bolt that holds the seat post on too. Well under 20 minutes from opening the package to riding the bike. (It seems to be the case that I have the newer version of the shim system - make sure you get that one. It has 3 round shims that nest inside each other and are open on one end. I'm not sure if it is the recommended procedure, but I line up all the open ends of the shims, which allows for easier expansion.) I haven't tried it with a heavy load yet, but I'm confident it will hold more than the 22 lbs advertised.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good rack and easy to install
*by J***Y on June 12, 2014*

This is a sharp-looking, strong, inexpensive (at just over $10), and easy-to install product. Certainly worth more than I paid for it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good, easy to install and secures cargo well! Slight issue with the screws, had to replace those.
*by J***E on May 26, 2015*

I've only had it on my road bike for a few weeks but it's been great. I use the cord it came with an two additional bungees to strap my briefcase and lunch to it on my 5+mile trip to the office. It was easy to install and doesn't look as busy as a rear rack that connects to the spokes. UPDATE: On a recent ride (after 3-4 weeks of it being on my bike), one of the screws that fastens the rack to the seatpole broke in half. I was able to make it home, but with only one screw holding it on, the rack swayed and was unsafe to carry cargo. I called Schwinn to have them send me a replacement screw but they don't have parts for accessories and suggested I return it. Instead of having to go without the rack while processing a return, I spent a couple bucks on screws at Lowe's and installed sturdier, longer ones. All good, once agin.
