Troubleshooting
Rack feels unstable after installation
Ensure the centre bolt clip is securely fastened to the brake bridge and that the seatstay straps are tightly secured and not slipping.
RX TrunkBag does not click into place
Verify that the QuickTrack™ system on the rack is clean and free of debris. Ensure the bag is aligned correctly before attempting to slide and click it into place.
Rubbing noise from rack on bumps
Check that no parts of the rack are making contact with the tire or frame. Adjust the angle or position of the struts if necessary.
