This one has a history.
MINOURA’s rear carrier, the MT-800N, has been around for nearly 40 years.
Same shape. Steel. Simple.
A lot of riders have used it for a long time. That is not nothing.
But cycling changes. Gravel bikes, custom touring setups, new frame shapes.
So we made something new. The GV-R700. Same idea, updated for the way people ride today.
It works with 700C and 27.5 inch wheels.
Gravel, mountain, road.
The offset bracket design means it fits different frame shapes without much trouble.
Few steps to attach. Made in Japan. Max load 18kg. And 7 colors.
Matte Black, Blue Pearl, Mustard, Khaki, Dark Gray, Army Green, Burnt Orange.
I have to say — Mustard looks very good on a bike. I checked the photos carefully.
I am still looking for my next bike.
If I find one that fits this carrier, maybe I will finally have a reason to buy both.
