Old Man Mountain Elkhorn Bicycle Cargo Racks

The Old Man Mountain Elkhorn is a slender, multi-tool of a rack designed for versatility and secure cargo carrying. Stable and secure, it features 3-pack mounts on the uprights for your favorite cargo or bottle cages, and more tie-down points on the deck than you could ever need. Front or rear compatible, the Elkhorn allows you to feel the trail beneath you rather than the tail wag behind you.

Old Man Mountain racks are renowned as the most versatile racks available. They are capable of mounting to suspension forks, full-suspension mountain bikes, gravel bikes, road bikes, fat bikes, and even tri-bikes. Tested and trusted in the most extreme environments on earth, these racks have helped riders traverse Iceland in bitter, cold winters, carried the gear of countless GDMBR riders, and circumnavigated the globe.

What Makes The Elkhorn So Special? 

• Front or Rear Ready: The Elkhorn is extremely versatile. It comes front or rear ready for eyelet mounting, and with Old Man Mountain's Fit Kits, the Elkhorn mounts on any bike or fork with ease.

• Carry up to 25lbs!: The Elkhorn is ready to confidently carry up to 25lbs/11.4kg, whether you’re on smooth pavement, a rugged rock garden, or with your tires off the ground.

• Fits Any Bike: Fit Kits for thru axle or QR skewer mounting make OMM racks compatible with nearly any bike: road, gravel, hardtail, or full-suspension.

• Room For Big Tires: The Elkhorn comes in two sizes:

  • The Short fits up to 27.5 x 2.8″ or 700c x 50mm tires.

  • The Tall is for maximum mud clearance and fits tires up to 29 x 3.25″.

• Dropper Compatible: With nothing strapped to your seat and nothing attached to your post, you’ll have unencumbered freedom to use your dropper post. These racks are adjustable and can easily be set out of the way, even with short chainstays.

• 3-Pack Mounts: Set it up to suit your needs. With 3-pack mounts on the uprights, you can carry bottles, fuel, stuff sacks, dry bags, bolt-on bags, and more.

Note: The Elkhorn rack is not designed for traditional panniers, but it works great with Old Man Mountain's Hemlock bags with FLiP cages. If you are looking for a rack that is compatible with traditional panniers, check out their Divide or Divide XL racks.
