More Rack Repairs
2012.03.18 - Rando Rack Repairs, a set on Flickr.
Fixed two more racks this past weekend: a Nitto M-12 and a Velo-Orange Pass Hunter. Both had snapped-off fork-crown studs. The V-O rack was a bit tricky because it was stainless steel and TIG'd, so I had to use silver filler.

Aside from the tubing metal differences and placement of the lamp eyelets, did you see any appreciable differences in quality or design that would make one of these racks better than the other?
Not really. The backstop of the V-O rack is slightly different and shorter than that of the Nitto M-12, but otherwise they're very similar. The M-12 is slightly cheaper...
