Classic Polished Stainless Steel Front Rack for Serious Daily Cargo
The Velo Orange Porteur Rack draws inspiration from the hardworking newspaper delivery bikes of Paris, where these racks hauled everything from papers to packages without hesitation. Built from polished stainless steel tubing rather than painted steel or aluminum, this rack combines authentic Parisian style with modern engineering that lasts. Unlike racks that rust, fatigue, and crack under load, the Porteur shrugs off the elements and years of daily use with grace.
The spacious 36cm x 29cm platform provides a stable foundation for groceries, cases of beer, packages, or whatever your daily haul demands. A removable cargo rail offers extra security for smaller items, while thoughtful details—integrated light mounts, a dedicated fender attachment point, and elegant pannier tie-down loops—make this one of the most versatile cargo platforms available. Recent updates include dedicated fork-side mounting hardware for up to 50 lbs capacity when using the four-point mounting system, giving serious cargo haulers confidence in their load.
