Tumbleweed Pannier Rack
BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Bottom line
Tumbleweed’s Pannier Rack fits the front or rear of a bike and can carry 45lb. It comes in chromoly steel or titanium and two height options. There are no expert reviews of the steel version.

Owners applaud the steel rack’s value, and experts relish the titanium rack’s lightness and finish but not its price.Expert Reviews
