I have used this type before on the various bikes I've owned and the racks always carried the loads without failing. Unfortunately, this carrier rack won't fit my current bike, which has disc brakes and there's just no room on the back frame. Where there were holes on those other bikes, there's nothing to hold the carrier's struts on either side. I thought about making some kind of brackets to fix this problem, but it will just be easier getting a rack that has a different fastening system. This was still hard work because I put small washers on the back of each screw before tightening (with the included allen key) the nylock nuts in order to better hold them tighter and almost had it assembled on the bike before realizing there was no way it was going to work. I'll give it to some homeless person who depends on their bike to get around, and decide if I really need one of those racks or not. Review: Not bad at all, but buy better mounting hardware - Overall I'm pretty pleased with this rack. Pleased enough I bought a second for my wife's bike. It seems to be built pretty solidly and wasn't too much of a pain to put on. The one thing I wasn't too crazy about was the included mounting hardware. The included nuts and bolts weren't terrible, but I ended up going to the hardware store and picking up higher-quality replacement hardware. I'm glad I did, as the included bolts have a hex head and the ones I bought are Phillips/flat, not to mention stronger looking. In addition, if your bike's mounting holes are not threaded, you will need a long bolt to secure it below the seat, which this product DOES NOT INCLUDE. If you decide to buy mounting hardware, buy the following: - one #10-32 1-1/4" machine screw for mounting the front of the rack to the bike frame's rear wheel fork below the seat. note that on my cheapy bike it was just a hole so I needed a nut & bolt but for my wife's nicer bike, the bike frame was threaded. NOTE that the rack doesn't even come with a bolt this long so you may have to buy this (and a matching nut, see below) no matter what! - 8x #10-32 1/2" machine screws for connecting all parts of the rack together - 2x #10-32 1/2" or 3/4" machine screws for mounting the rack to the rear of the bike (wheel axle) - again, here my bike was thinner and just plain holes so 1/2" was fine. My wife's bike frame was thicker at this joint AND was designed with more clearance so 3/4" was more appropriate. - 11x #10-32 Nylon lock nuts to go with all the machine screws - you'll need at least 8 to put the rack together and possibly the other three to bolt the rack to the frame if it isn't threaded - and I would still use them even if it is. The nylon nuts have a nice grip and prevent the joint from loosening while you bump around riding. Note that all of these machine screws are #10-32 thickness/threading. This could be IMPORTANT as my wife's bike frame was threaded to this exact size. Bigger wouldn't have fit and smaller is less sturdy! This is the same size as the hardware that came with the rack. All in all, the replacement mounting hardware cost about $5 so even then the total cost was still comparable to the other rear racks out there. Overall study and a nice low price, it just loses that one star for the mounting hardware. ## Features - [SOME BICYCLES WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL HARDWARE] For assistance with hardware or installation: call us at 1-877-BIKEAID (245-3243) - [ADJUSTABLE] fits 26 IN. or 28 IN. bicycle tires, and features a fitting set to fit MOST BUT NOT ALL bike types - [TOOLS REQUIRED] 3mm Hex Wrench is included for easy assembly, 8mm wrench or pliers are required but not included to tighten the lock nuts completely. - [SPECIFICATIONS] lightweight, steel rack mounts to the back of your bicycle to help transport bags, panniers, cargo baskets and more at a 22 lb. or 10kg weight limit - a reflector bracket and spring flap are also included! - [INSTALLATION] An updated assembly guide is available, please see product photos at the bottom of this listing page! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001NGF6AY | | Best Sellers Rank | #50,936 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #10 in Bike Cargo Racks | | Brand | Ventura | | Brand Name | Ventura | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (8,022) | | Date First Available | December 9, 2008 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04015493440048 | | Included Components | Rack, hardware | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 15 x 5 x 15 inches | | Item Package Dimensions L x W x H | 14.92 x 8.86 x 2.64 inches | | Item Weight | 1.05 Kilograms | | Load Capacity | 22 pound | | Manufacturer | Cycle Force Group | | Material | Blend | | Model Name | Ventura Universal Bike Rack | | Model Year | 2017 | | Mounting Type | back | | Number of Items | 1 | | Orientation | Rear | | Package Weight | 1.09 Kilograms | | Part Number | 440149 | | Product Dimensions | 14.57"L x 6.69"W x 14.17"H | | Size | 13 x 5" | | Sport Type | Cycling | | Style | Cargo | | Suggested Users | unisex-adult | | UPC | 698238401654 | | Warranty Description | Limited | | Wheel Size | 28 Inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Ventura - **Color:** Black - **Item Weight:** 1.05 Kilograms - **Material:** Blend - **Product Dimensions:** 14.57"L x 6.69"W x 14.17"H ## Images ![Ventura Universal Carrier Rack - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611p3ysMuwL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If it fits your bike it's the best kind. *by G***N on October 31, 2025* This is a very well made carrier rack, welded steel and built to withstand abuse with a weight-limit of 10 KG (22 Lbs.)

The product itself is wonderful, just as the reviews said. And like the other reviews said, the service is terrible. I've always had nothing but pleasant experiences when ordering from Amazon, so I read all the negativity and dismissed it. I thought those were unlucky people. I was wrong. First time I ordered, it took over a month to get to me. When it finally came, the box was weird/unmarked. I shook it and it rattled. I opened up the box and there was this sorry looking bit of plastic packaging, all mangled and ripped. Looks like a rat tried to eat it. Bolts, nuts were everywhere. Guess that explains the rattling, right? But I really don't care about looks, so I started putting everything together only to find that I was missing a small black bar (the "extender" bar?). I contacted Amazon and explained that all I needed was an "extender" bar. They replied promptly and told me that they do not ship parts; I would need to return the partial package once I received the replacement. I agreed. Second package comes in an Amazon box. Shook it and rattling was minimal/normal. Promising. I opened it up and found the plastic package mostly intact...except for one big, clean slit towards the bottom where it looks like they shoved parts in. Again, really didn't care about looks, so I pulled it all out and got my one stupid extender bar and I was hoping to find some bolts/nuts. I forgot to mention to them that I needed 3 bolts/nuts, but I figured hey, why worry if they're sending me a whole new replacement package, right? Wrong. This one had no nuts/bolts. But I found some that worked, so it was okay (God forbid I approach them a third time and they screw it up...again). The product didn't quite fit on my Schwinn Aluminum Comp for some reason, but I ghetto rigged it and made it fit. Kinda. For $10, it's alright. The kicker? I basically paid $20 because I was too lazy to return the other package. I just got busy and never got around to mailing it...returns are just so freaking inconvenient. And the part I find incredibly funny is this: "We never ship just parts". Oh, really? Then why the HECK did I receive not one, but TWO partial packages? Let's use some common sense here....someone got to those packages before the customer did...so they're doing something with those parts. If they stopped ripping open packages, all these problems would be gone. Friends, Amazon does a lot of things well. I love Amazon. But for some reason, they struggle with Ventura Universal Bicycle Carrier Racks. Do not brush off all the negative reviews; they are real people that got a real pain in the butt from this (usually) really good company. This is a great product, but not worth the hassle. If you choose to not heed my warning and order it for your kid's bike for Christmas, fine. Order it now if you want it for Christmas. I am dead serious. It'll take a month to ship the first time and there's a good chance they will screw up *multiple* times. And you may want to assemble it for your kid, too, like for him to go out to his bike and see it on there. Because no 6-year-old wants to open up a Christmas present only to find a ratty, ransacked piece of plastic packaging. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ventura Universal Carrier Rack - Retrospec Retrospec Apollo Bike Basket - WEEROCK Bike Folding Basket Bicycle Front Basket Bicycle Rear Basket Foldable steel Wire Baskets for Bike Handlebar/Rear Cargo Rack, Black/Silvery --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/278559-ventura-universal-carrier-rack](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/278559-ventura-universal-carrier-rack) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
