Hey guys, in the market for a prai of racks but procrastinating due to price (why the heck are these things so expensive anyway???) Would go with the XTP double up rack but found this one on barts:

Thyey have a deal running where you get a $35 gift cert with purchases over $200 so this would be a great deal. I have the Rad-ACage 1 7/8" tower. I don't see why this wouldn't mount on the oval horizontal bar ok if I wrapped it with that ruber/pvc tape first...whaddya' think?

Also, check out this one:

Even beter deal and nicer rack. Same dilemma.

Has anyone used either of these and/or have an opinion on how I could make it work. Appreciate any/all advice!!!

UPDATE!!! I guessI answered my own question. Check out this rack:

I called the seller this a.m. and he was pretty cool. I told him I had a Moomba and he said he has the bracket to fit the Skier's Choice/Moomba/Supra flat 1 7/8" oval horizontal bar. I assume he is manufacturing these by his ebay ID. This appears identical to the XTP and waaaaay cheaper! I picked up a pair this a.m. for $170!!!

Waiting to hear back from him if he also has/or can mfg a wakesurf rack...will advise...

Those racks seem right and the seller,Rio, is a top guy.Just a couple days ago got my speakers/lights combo from him, delivered in only 3 days from Cali to Spain.All worked perfect. :)
