Frog sell a rack which is branded as Racktime. It's a separate brand but the UK distributor for it doesn't distribute it apparently. I think I will need a £10 replacement seat bolt. The qr seat bolt would need to be replaced by the allen bolt that had two extra threaded holes to take the bars of the rack that usually attach to the seat stays.
I might just buy this direct from frog. £30 + £10 for the seat post qr replacement isn't too bad I reckon. Unless you have a better suggestion.
Best racks for 20" wheeled bikes?
Re: Best racks for 20" wheeled bikes?
By the looks of it the Frog has the braze-ons on the Seat Stays, so it seems odd not to use them.
The Islabikes racks use these:
that's the one for the "Beinn 20 small" which I'd guess wouldn't be too far off. And you'd save a tenner.

Re: Best racks for 20" wheeled bikes?
I'm now confused. I was sure the Frog bike we first saw had no seat stay bosses for a rack but the website shows them. They sell a seat post clamp with rack attachment but why if there's seat stay bosses for a rack.
I need to check the bike has them. Might just be £29 for the rack without the clamp.
