ABSTRACT:
A bicycle rack for supporting panniers includes first and second laterally spaced apart frames connected to each other by a substantially U-shaped yoke. Each of the frames includes a clamp which is configured to grip a bifurcation of a steering fork of a bicycle. Each frame also includes a transverse member having a flange with an upper edge of the flange defining at least one notch for engaging an axle of the front wheel of the bicycle. The rack can be quickly and easily mounted, dismounted and remounted as desired on the same or on different bicycles. The panniers rack of the invention eliminates the need for special mounting features and does not require any permanent modifications which would alter the appearance of the bicycle.
