Tubus Logo Evo Rack
Pros
My second of these (the first left with a stolen bike). Fantastic rack. I really like hanging my Ortlieb panniers from that lower bar. Easier to attach loads to the top bar after (or before). Rack is simple to install and level, carries fully loaded panniers and gear on-top without protest, has a really very nice light mount on the back.
Cons
None.
Under or Over engineered? - less than satisfied
Don't really care for the design of this rack. The rack relies on some very proprietary hardware, which unfortunately caused me some major issues on a recent multi-day tour when one of the compression nuts that holds the rack to the stabilizing arms loosened and fell off. Their was no way to keep the rack attached without this hardware to the bike frame just under the seat. Also kind of a pain to have to bend the stabilizing arms in order to have them line up with your lug connection points. You only get one chance to do this right and with no previous practice in bending the tubing it has a potential to go all wrong. Friend bought the titanium equivalent rack - he was too into having to bend the titanium either. Not the best design approach for integrating with the bike.
Tubus Rack
Very high quality and looks great. Way better than the cheap aluminum racks.
Tubus Logo Evo Rack
I bought this rack to do a cross country bike tour. It was strong enough to carry anyting I needed and performed flawlessly and lightweight enough when concerned about long distance travel. I disassemble the rack when I ship the bike and never have trouble re-assembling it.
