OMM stuff is well thought out and robust - so expect these to be good.

I was looking some of the racks and axle mounts at lunchtime but can’t quite justify the £££

but it’s a neat solution

Saw these on bikepacking.com. Went to the omm website and thought the same thing.

Makes my decision to change forks just for the eyelets better value for money.

Can see this being a good solution for suspension forks.

Alternatively, with some suitably strong tape:

I've actually fitted a pair to some carbon gravel forks, with monkii cages. Will report back.

I guess you could also mount stays for a full mudguard onto them on a suspension fork. Nice to have a bit of comfort while retaining the cleanliness and ability to transport stuff. Without needing to resort to clamps etc.

The mounts I posted above are working very well. 45 miles of hike-a-bike and rough tracks last weekend and they didn't budge an inch with a weighty tool bottle on one side and another lighter one with fuel etc on the other.[url= https://i.postimg.cc/q7MhjJ1b/PXL-20240211-143935977.jp g" target="_blank">https://i.postimg.cc/q7MhjJ1b/PXL-20240211-143935977.jp g"/> [/img][/url]

They've got a slight inner concave profile so would fit snugly to suspension forks. I used framing tape to glue them then a couple of wraps of gorilla tape to make sure.
