Greetings. I have a non-Rad bike and its bolt placement on the head tube look very similar to Rad's. I wonder if I can use Rad's front rack/front basket on my bike. Can anyone provide center-to-center measurements of the four-bolt arrangement for me? Mine are about 36mm x 110mm. Thanks in advance :)

Looks like you might have a bit of trouble on the long end.

Very much appreciate the reply. Looks like a no-go!

Looks like there is room to elongate or re-drill some holes. The rack is made of really stout aluminum. Not beer can thin. The mounting plate is probably 1/4 inch thick.

I use the RPB front basket on my RW4, I also added a stainless dual water bottle holder in a sandwich, It is an RPB accessory on Amazon.  I know the standard screws weren't long enough.  I think they are M5's, I used 25-30mm length bolts.  It's a nice setup.
I'm an RW4 owner. I'm not using any of these ancient forums. (ICQ, AIM, MSN, YIM). Instead look for @joelhuebner, joel.huebner, joel.huebner@gmail.com, joel52334.
That's where you will find me.
