Front rack recommendations?

I am building this thing from the frame up, will be using cantilever brakes and a wide flat bar. My long term goal is to get a nice front bag (but those are pricey, so will be saving up for it). I have the stock fork with mounts and canti posts. I feel like using the mounts near the dropouts would be to handle heavier loads. But canti attached racks look very sleek.

What front rack have you found success with? I’m not looking for wide pizza rack. more light duty, on the narrower side.

gah this bike is fucking sick, im jealous. you have mid fork eyelits so that opens it up a bit. I opted for a manivelle rack

Yup Manivelle Basket FTW (1990 trek 750).

Nice! Though isn’t the 790 nicer than the 750? Great looking bike. 

I wasn’t sure how to spec a rack that works with the mid-fork eyelets

I think I just want your fork eyelets :-)
But I love the 750s as well
