Hepco & Becker pannier rack - questions
Hi,

I am looking for a new pannier rack as my Five Stars rack is bent after a fall...

I read somewhere that the Hepco & Becker rack is asymmetric. Can someone who has this rack confirm this?

Thanks,

Frank

Hi belltj,

I will post link when I'm at home (website is blocked from work). You can fit alu panniers on them.

It's a pitty that no one here has a Hepco & Becker rack, as I really would like to know if they are still asymmetric. I think I read somewhere that they were and now they changed them to symmetric, but would like to make sure.

Here is lot of info for the KLE:

And here: (scroll down, there are pics for Five Stars rack and Hepco & Becker rack on KLE)

Hi belltj,

Unfortunately the site is not up to date. I was very interested in the custom made engine protection and the aluminium rack but the guy who did the stuff is not working in the metal company anymore.

If you need translation for something there let me know, I'm German.

Cheers,

Frank
