Technical Details

I acquired this rack from Ron Boomsma on eBay in 2010.

This rack is 239 mm. tall, 64 mm. wide, 19 mm. thick, and weighs 521 g. The frame is made from 9.8 mm. stainless steel bent into a U, with an internal width of 28 mm. The frame is painted black. There are 6 brake bars. The holes in the bars are countersunk on the top and bottom. The bars are 19 mm. in diameter and 64 mm. long. Allowing 35 mm. for the rope leaves 67 mm. for spreading the bars.

There are no markings on this rack.

Comments

I dislike painted descenders, since the paint just wears off on the rope, seemingly regardless of any care taken to keep the rope away from the painted areas.

The countersunk bar holes would be useful on a J-frame rack, but they serve no purpose on a U-frame.

For far more content, use a larger monitor and a full-width window.

Hundreds of cell phone users complained and asked me to for a simpler, mobile friendly site. In particular, they wanted me to limit each page to a small number of pictures and minimize my use of text. This new site provides what they asked for.
