>>1608283Imho the "front load" meme is hipsters getting into low trail forks and rando, where it makes sense, and then less-informed hipsters copying them on mid or high trail forks. The later options steer like shit with any significant amount of weight over the front wheel, as would your mtb. Best to use panniers if the trails are wide. Giant saddlebag is the other option for a narrower bike profile. You can easily get a detachable handlebar bag for lightweight stuff. It will probably cost almost nothing compared to Radavist bro Swift industries+ nitto rack stuff. Pic related is very nice Carradice brand option
