Velo Orange Flat Pack Front Rack (Black)

Velo Orange collaborated with Ikea on this cool flat packable chokladtryffelbärare, which loosely translates to chocolate truffle carrier.  Ideal for carrying truffles but also other chocolaty items, like choco tacos and those weird chocolate scented markers from elementary school.  

The Flat Pack Rack (isn't chokladtryffelbärare a way better name? tell Igor to hire me)

features long enough struts to mount down at the fork drop outs, but you can also cut them down and mount them to Mark's rack mounts like the Moonshiner and Hardtack and many Rivs and other bikes have.  They'll also mount to most Manything Cage mounts or low rider mounts.  You can cut the struts down to length (measure once, cut twice, or something like that) and then file the ends with a... file.  Although we use a fancy deburring tool.  The back of the rack, which features a Tombstone (oddly lacking both Pizza and Val Kilmer vibe) which is removable and replaceable with a Decaleur, which according to google is French for Shifter, but if you translate shifter into French you get manette de vitesse, so really, who is fooling who here.  The decaleur lets you mount a big old boxy Rando bag on the rack, if that's your thing.  We're more into baskets and floppy sacks, the canvas kind.  To each their own.  Rack comes with both the Decaleur and limited edition VHS of Tombstone.  No it just comes with a bolt on Tombstone, like is shown in the second pic.  

Great for supporting a family of 3, no wait, for supporting a Wald 137 basket or 139 if you are feeling ambitious.  Pairs well with a fine chianti and a Fifth Season Squall or Switchel Sack, if you have a 137 basket.  

Very minor assembly required.
