In my search for Canadian Bike Racks, I found three options:
- Arkel Bike Racks - Their panniers are made in Canada and top quality.
- Axiom Bike Racks
- MEC Brand Bike Racks
Are there any others?
My last set of Arkel panniers were made in China.
Arkel makes some excellent quality bags. There are at least a couple racks made in Canada but they aren’t exactly your typical panier racks. Mica cycles makes the rat tail rack for bike packing, it has 3-pack mounts on the side and it’s meant to have a dry bag lashed to the top. Memento cycles makes a couple models of front rack which are super strong and built for carrying cargo or a large basket. If you have more questions about either of these, let me know, I own one of each
Also wzrd bikes does custom racks which are beautiful but I suspect are very expensive
What makes you think that the Axiom bike racks are made in Canada? I looked through the site and I don’t see any language about their product being made in Canada, I don’t even know where the company is located, their about us and contact us pages don’t show anything about where they are located. I kind of doubt that it’s made in Canada, they would push that harder in their marketing.
The MEC racks all clearly say made in Taiwan.
