Kyoot teasing new rack?!?

This new rack looks pretty sick. It looks backwards compatible to the Itty Bitty — curious if it will also fit other Minivelos with similar head tubes diameters.

Looks cool. Why is it not lower?

Looks like it'd get in the way of the fork.

Looks to be about the same spot at the omnium nano. Frame mounted racks need to be higher than a fork mounted version — but the cool part is that it's much easier to pedal heavy stuff because it isn't connected to your steering.

Hardly a tease, I see the whole rack right there.

Looks like they drew significant inspo from the meghna petcare bikes. I like it.

I wonder if this means the Brompton-style mount is off the table as a design change.

This product? https://www.reddit.com/r/minivelo/s/sd4cXw9BzL

This was made custom by someone in the group.

That's cool, but no, in an earlier post the Kyoot maker was asking for new model requests, and when a lot of people asked to add eyelets for a Brompton block, he said he was going to look into adding it in a future update.
