Abstract
A rear carrier rack for a bicycle comprises spaced-apart side members, each of which includes a horizontal portion and an L-shaped portion, an inverted U-bar, an inverted V-bar and a plurality of cross pieces, of which one between the two horizontal portions of the side members supports a pair of adjustable connecting bars and a locking mechanism for such bars. The free ends of the two bars and the two points where the free ends of the V-shaped and U-shaped bars meet serve as the four attachment points of the rack to the bicycle.
