Divide

Just took the OMM Divide rack around the Lake Disctrict in UK on a very hard 200km route. I had only one Ortlieb pannier attached to it, and it worked flawlessly. No sway, no palpable degradation of rear suspension performance. No movement of the plastic seatstay mounts. I really like the separate "top shelf" and the rail which make it easy to strap down a tent or something else to the top, and still clip on the pannier with ease. To me, it also beats saddle bags hands down because it leaves the full dropper post travel intact - and boy, on some of the steep descents I needed it! I really like that I can re-use my existing investment in ordinary pannier bags, and not have to get new proprietary bags. 5 stars from me.

I ordered my Divide rack two years ago and finally got around to using it this summer. I used a rear fit kit to mount it to my mountain bike for my first solo bikepack, which worked perfectly. It was just a quick overnighter, but I would take it on a longer trip without hesitation. I was also able to swap it to my road bike, which is where it will get the most use, using the standard hardware that came included with the rack. The versatility is awesome.

My Divide is mounted to a Surly Ogre. It was very difficult (though not impossible) to fit it to the rear of this bike. I think having a fit kit might have helped, but one is not available. The OMM support was excellent as I struggled to get an acceptable fit. That said, I have taken the Divide on about 150 miles of riding around the Mojave and Anza-Boreggo deserts loaded with 20 pounds of equipment and at one point 6 liters of water and about 5 pounds of food. The rack worked perfectly despite washboarding shaking the heck out of it for a fair bit of the trip. I have also completed a tour of about 1000 miles (70 percent paved and 30 percent gravel and mud with a fair number of blow downs) and again the rack met my expectations. I do wish the platform was a little bigger, but I all and all it is a quality piece of equipment that is well worth the price. I give it 4.5 stars

Second rack purchase from OMM (first was on a bike when it was stolen) and it is great. As others have noted, fit and finish are perfect, and the frame 'pucks' are solid. Recommended.

Great rack-strong and simple. Have used as both front and rear rack, with Robert Axle through axles. Solid and secure and no rattles. 5 stars

Woo hoo! Day three of the Katy Trail in Missouri and the Divide rack is awesome! The fit guide for my Santa Cruz Stigmata worked like a charm and the mechanic at 2nd Ave Sports in Durango installed it with no problems. Thank you Old Man Mountain. 🚲

I have the OMM divide rack and Robert axle project kit to fit my bike; everything was very smooth to install and has been totally solid on my bike for a year now. Really well designed, well made stuff, highly recommend.

I just rode 150+ miles on an expedition race, including a lot of aggressive singletrack, with my Divide rack on an axle mount kit and Ponderosa panniers loaded pretty heavy. This included multiple times breaking the bike down into a box and rebuilding, so I got plenty of practice with the axle. Verdict: this setup is rock solid and super easy!

In my opinion Old Man Mountain Racks are the best. I currently own a Divide on the front of my Salsa Marrakesh, a Divide Made in the USA on the rear, and the basket on the front (for daily errands). These racks are solid. The rear has been on a few tours already and doesn't show any signs of wear. I would highly recommend these racks if you are looking for something durable that will last probably longer than you!

I recently completed a 200 mile bikepacking trip with the Divide front rack carrying two Ortlieb panniers flawlessly. Along the trail another rider saw my setup and was surprised that I could use the Divide with a front suspension fork (his bike shop told him that you couldn’t put a rack on a suspension fork) and asked who made it. I told him it was made by OMM. That is the best recommendation I can give.

Excellent rack. It handled 20 + pounds of gear on my first bike packing trip with ease. I love the through axel which provides a sturdy base. I highly recommend this rack system!!

Well made. Only problem installing on the gravel bike that I needed to apply a lot of pressure to flex the rack so it would fit on the rear of bike on the rear attachment points for the carbon frame. Otherwise, it fits and looks great on the bike, Giant Revolt Advanced. Very good build quality. I will buy another rack when the USA government stops attacking the economy of Canada.

Perfect Rack. Period. The Divide by Old Man Mountain is a game-changer—rock solid, beautifully engineered, and built to go anywhere. If you’re searching for a bike rack that can handle full-suspension setups like our Cannondale Habit 4s, stop looking. We struggled to find a solution that would work with both front and rear suspension, but the Divide nailed it. Fitment was flawless. On top of that, the customer service was nothing short of outstanding—knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely helpful in making sure we had everything we needed. Incredible product. First-class team. 10/10.

For anyone looking for a rock solid durable rack .. this is it! installation is simple and very straight FWD. The videos produced by Old Man Mountain are incredibly helpful and insightful. It may not be the lightest in the market - but you will not find something more that is robust out there, the welds are great, the materials are fantastic ... this won't fail you.

This is the rack of racks if you want something bomb proof and sturdy. Have it axle mounted, and run two pannier and a trunk bag. Have carried two six packs, two Crowlers, and 4 pints on it - plus my gear for an overnighter. It doesn't budge. Plenty of lash points and space. Works as a partial mud guard! Currently have it on my gravel bike, it commutes with me on pavement, I've done a few overnighters with it, and it's even ridden my local MTB trails in the woods. I'm already eyeing the new XL version that was just released!

Works well to carry my backpack. Also have the saddle bags which I like.

Got the divide because of a trip. This rack was easy to install, carries ALL my gear, performs beyond what is advertised, and looks great doing all that!! I would recommend any Old Man Mountain product based on my experience with the company and product!!

Bought a Divide rack. Installation was a breeze. Usage was smooth as expected. I had a technical issue with one puck after repetitive install/uninstall iterations, but received excellent service and the issue was resolved to my complete satisfaction. Recommend this product and compliment the company behind it.

The rack fit my bike with its boost rear axle and no eyelets! Super solid and no rattles! I started off using the included zip tie eyelets, but have since installed a seat collar with built in eyelets for the upper struts. The struts were plenty long enough to reach. Love it!

Rock solid.....best rear rack I have ever owned, and that has been a few. A little on the short side if you have a lot of gear.... If so go for the XL.

The only rack tough and stout enough ( and that I trust) to carry the spare battery that I use on my eMTN/gravel bike. I tried 'another' brand first and the weight and/or vibrations tore the rack apart. @ years now with the OMM Divide and not a hitch. I've even checked the tightness of the bolts a couple times and NO movement/looseness.

Rock Solid rack for my Yeti. I really struggled to find space to mount enough cargo on my dual suspended Yeti for a trip on the Aquarius trail in Utah. Big seat bags hit my rear tire on every bump. I was dreading carrying a giant backpack until I found this. My whole trip was more enjoyable because I wasn't worried about my gear, it was low, tight, and rearward so I could attack the single track without worrying about my gear. Worth every penny (and it was a lot of pennies).

I put the divide fat rack on the rear of a Quietkat Jeep full suspension emtb with 4.9 inch fat tires using the recommended axle shaft (purchased separately) and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. The rack is a high quality product and very strong. Installation was easy and quick. I liked it so much I purchased two more for the other two Quietkat full suspension emtb’s I have that my other family members use. I added a Topeak Omni Quick Track adapter so I could use the topeak MTX trunkbag EX rack trunk. You can also use the MTX Trunk Bag EXP Rack Trunk with pannier side panels. Again the old man mountain divide rack is very high quality and works great.

It's a fine rear bike rack, very well made. Lighter would be nice. Works perfectly with OMM panniers. I highly recommend OMM gear.

I used this rack on my bike-packing trip in Guatemala last year. Mounted to a full sus mtn bike on the rear axle. We went roughly 120 miles and 20,000' of vertical, and the rack had 2 panniers totaling around 30 lbs of gear on it. Held up like a champ with zero issues. In fact, another rider and I in the group were both using this rack, and we were the only ones in the group who didn't have issues with our racks at some point.

Love this rack! Very well made. The axle mounting system is genius. I did have to do a little light bending of my straps that mounted to my seat post, but it was easy to do and now looks custom for my bike. Works incredibly well, and was very pleased how quickly they were placed in the mail. Great product and company. Thank you!

Had this Divide Rack on the rear of my State All Road with 27.5x2.25 Mezcals for about 1.5 years and it’s been loaded all the ways I can come up with for bikepacking, hauling my stuff to work, or just out riding. It’s put up with being loaded down with two panniers and a tent strapped to the top and sending it on descents of single and double track routes. It’s even gotten to see a few thousand miles from a 1Up bike rack. The 1Up style arms aren’t an issue with the divide rack’s design and my bike setup so added bonus. Stays quiet and it stays put so I love it.

Absolutely great material quality and fit. My only small problem was the mounting hooks on my Jand bags were just a little too far apart to fit, so I ended up having to drill new holes in the bags to move the hooks in. And wouldn’t you know, the day that I installed the second one they announced the longer version. Anyway though, the fit is great. It’s so nice being able to use the rear fender again, which I couldn’t do with the floating rack that I had attached to the seat post previously (since the bike has rear suspension).

Rock solid and easy to install. The install hardware they send makes allows for you to install in a wide variety of bikes. I've got a crate strapped to mine, and I can really load that thing up due to how strong and stable this rack is. Highly recommend for just about any application

Best rack ever! No need to say more! Just get yours and enjoy.

Excellent build quality and no issue clearing 29x3.25 on my 45mm rims Thanks, OMM!
