Lost one of the bolts that hold the rack onto the back of my bicycle, didn’t have a suitable replacement on hand, so I used a few cotter pins to stand in. We’ll see how it holds up.

Yes, those tires are well beyond needing replaced. Just pulled this thing out of storage after it has sat for over three years. Adjusted stuff this evening to make sure everything still functions. Will be replacing a few parts shortly.

Cotterless cranks racks are overrated.

I wanted to go with LATFH but this was a quality repair I’d trust for light loads.

Very clever, but not sure how well it will hold tension...

This is mostly just to ensure the thing doesn’t fall off on me while I source a new bolt.
