Tubus Fly Classic rear rack – Raw stainless steel
The Tubus Fly Classic stainless steel rear rack (art. 41000) is the purist two-tube Tubus rack in raw, unpainted stainless steel for 26" and 28" wheels – up to 18 kg of luggage, no paint to chip, and an elegant silver look on any frame.
Why the stainless Fly Classic?
No paint to chip. Raw stainless steel has no coating that can be scratched off by pannier hooks, locks or bike stands.
Elegant, timeless look. A silver rack that suits polished, raw and classic frames.
Light and strong. Two bent 10 mm tubes carry up to 18 kg.
Room for real tyres. Clearance for tyres up to 45 mm and mudguards up to 50 mm wide.
Rear light mount. Holes with 50 mm spacing for a standard rack-mounted rear light.
Made for riding in all weather
Commuting through winter, salted roads and wet bike sheds are hard on painted racks. The stainless Fly Classic keeps its finish, and the simple two-tube shape is easy to clean. It is fitted at the frame's rack eyelets and, at the top, to the brake bridge; the mounting hardware is included.
Who is it for?
- Year-round commuters. Who ride in rain and road salt and want a rack that stays good-looking.
- Owners of silver, raw or classic frames. A rack that matches instead of a black contrast.
- Light tourers and randonneurs. Up to 18 kg on a sporty trekking bike.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference from the black Fly Classic?
The shape and the fitting dimensions are the same. The black version is made of black-finished 25CrMo4 steel; this one is raw stainless steel with no coating that can chip.
Does it fit my bike?
It fits 26" and 28" bikes with rack eyelets at the dropouts, tyres up to about 45 mm and a frame width of 150–180 mm at the dropouts. Without eyelets, Tubus only permits mounting with its clamp adapter set (sold separately). Send us a photo of your rear dropouts and we will check it.
Can I mount a child seat on it?
No. Tubus does not approve the Fly Classic for child seats.
Can you fit it to a Booda Bike?
Yes – ask us when you order your bike and we will tell you which models it suits.
