Hencho En Madison


Here is a great shot Lyle took of his 12-Pack Rack. (note the custom bar plugs I installed on New Years Eve) This rack does exactly what it claims to do, carry 12 packs. And it does it well. You can get one of your own by emailing Leah Stargardter at 12packrack@gmail.com. If you google 12 Pack Rack, you can also find some other shots on some random Flickr accounts. Leah is a pro, and she can build a sweet rack, with or without the bells and whistles. Lyle had her integrate low rider pannier racks.
Last spring when Leah and her partner Ahren Rogers were working at Revolution Cycles I stopped by and saw Ahren holding an empty Leinenkugels box over a stainless steel square he'd welded. The 12-Pack Rack had just been born...it was cool, and I ended up getting one of the first production versions. It has served me well on many a beer run.
