Maximum weight capacity on the RackStand is 25 kg or approximately 55 lbs.

What is the maximum cargo load you can transport on the rackstand?

The Boston is the only bike model we make that is not compatible with our RackStand. Since it is a single speed, it has a 120mm rear hub width, which is significantly narrower than the typical 135mm hub spacing used on geared bikes. Additionally, the Boston uses a bolt on rear axle rather than quick release, and RackStand mounts with the use of a specially designed quick release skewer.

However, you can use a different standard rear rack – one that does not rotate down. The Axiom Streamliner Road DLX rack works well on the Boston and does not interfere with folding: https://www.google.com/shopping/product/13439108315635271964/

Does the rackstand fit on 2016 Montague Boston ?

I’d love to reinstall the RackStand, would this be possible?

I’ve linked to a photo of the rear hub, and also the current state of the conversion. It’s a brilliant bike and such a fun ride. ?

Yes! RackStand can be mounted on the Paratrooper Elite, but the included front fender is not compatible with the RockShox fork on that bike.

Hi Vincent. Yes, RackStand is compatible with the 2015 FIT. The mounting bolt for the brake caliper is also used to mount the front fender. You will just need a replacement frame collar, which provides a mounting point for the front latch: https://www.montaguebikes.com/product/frame-collar/.

RackStand is compatible with the current FIT. There have been some spec changes in more recent years, but RackStand would be compatible with any FIT from 2016 to present.
