The shitty steel Wald 215 rack I bought for ~$30 that all the /n/iggers in the /bqg/ told me would self-destruct is still working and outlasting my fancy aluminum touring racks. I'm carrying 20lbs of battery + 20lbs of potatoes over bumpy ass roads at 35mph and it doesn't give a shit. Granted, I took /n/'s advice about the weak welds, so I reinforced them with hose clamps just to be sure they don't break apart. This has exceeded my expectations. Aluminum fags btfo.
Taking what I learned (steel is real frfr) I have modified a beefy Tubus steel rack to hold an ebike battery. This is what I wanted in the first place. It's solid af, but would be better if it could be welded. Might use this on a new build, since the Wald is still working fine.
