This front rack was brewed and born right in the Fern Bicycles workshop in Berlin. Over the years, we have hand-built numerous versions and continuously refined this unique design. We are now proud to present this production model, made with the same great attention to detail as if it were handmade by us.

What sets our rack apart from others is that we make no compromises and use only the very best materials available, such as super thin-walled, ultra-light, and high-strength seamless 25CrMo4 tubing. All hardware is custom-made specifically for this rack, and we use rust-free, high-grade stainless steel. Each bolt is individually black zinc-nickel plated by hand. With this rack, you will receive a complete hardware set, including every bolt needed for virtually any mounting situation, making it compatible with almost every bike available. We now also include a strip of custom-cut 10 mm wide 3M Helitape for additional rack and paint protection.

Featuring our signature 3D-bent diamond design, the Diamond Rack is the perfect front rack for those looking for a compact option that fits perfectly on a fast randonneur, gravel, or road bike. This rack makes your bike look even faster than without one.

The Diamond Rack allows you to carry a handlebar bag, a sleeping bag, or even a six-pack—whatever you need to enhance your bikepacking or randonneuring adventure.

You can now choose between long (420 mm) or short (270 mm) rack stays. The long stays are designed for dropout fender eyelet mounting, while the short stays are intended for mid-fork leg lowrider or cargo cage eyelet mounting.

If you are unsure which length you need, we recommend choosing the long stays—you can always cut them down to size.

Fern, Allygn and Gramm-Tourpacking teamed up to create the perfect fitting handlebar bag for this type of rack, which is available now in the Fern and Gramm Onlineshops! Go check it out here!

Many people ask how much load the rack can handle and it actually can carry a lot. We have been testing it with up to 70kgs.
But, usually the fork mounting points / eyelets are the weakest link in the chain. Especially on carbon forks you should be very careful not to overload or over torque the mounting points.
ALWAYS check back with the maker of the fork how much weight it can carry!
Also for bike handling reasons, we usually recommend to use our racks for a maximum load of around 5-8 kgs.

All racks are made in Taiwan.

ATTENTION:
Please check before your order if your fork has a front fork crown drilling or eyelet / thread!
You'll also need either fork dropout mounts (order long stays), or mid fork leg lowrider mounts, anything cage mounts or cantilever brake bosses (order short stays) for installing this rack! If in doubt order long stays!
The rack is designed to work best on headangles from 71°to 73°. Shallower angles may work aswell, depending on fork length and wheel / tire size.

M5 Bolts for M5 fork crown mounts are now included!

WARNING:
On carbon forks please make sure with the manufacturer of the fork that the mounting points are suitable and safe for rack installation. We do not take any responsibilty for fork failures or other damage!
