Low rider bicycle luggage carrier

Low riders are most commonly used by cycling tourists who carry luggage in panniers on the front wheel.

[1] Like other types of luggage carriers low riders are usually constructed out of aluminum or (stainless) steel rods or tubing.

[2] Low riders can be made out of two separate parts or joined together with a stabilizing bow, which increases the stiffness.

Another mid-fork eyelet "braze-on" is positioned 160 to 175 mm above it for mounting a low rider front luggage carrier.

Some of these come in the form of "U-Bolts", clamps, or some sort of clamp-on eyelet (see Tubus Aluminum Alloy Fork Mounting Kit) When installing carriers, a drop of thread-locking fluid is advised to ensure that the screws do not loosen from vibrations under load.
