The Pizza rack was the perfect solution to my needs as I use my e-bike to go fishing in the backwoods and needed the extra room to put a small backpacking table and cooler, it is the perfect solution and works amazing if you need that little bit more room and the item won’t fit in your panniers. Also I like that they gave you plenty of room to run your cable’s through the inside of the mounting bracket! Installation was straightforward and simple but takes a little patience to shim the gaps out with the spacers and washers but it isn’t rocket science just a little fidgeting is all. Well worth the money.

Took a little elbow grease but the item came with the necessary bolts and washers. Added a milk crate on top to make it functional!

We added a basket on top of the rack to carry stuff in and it is stable and works great. Very useful addition.

my bike feels complete

I wanted to post this feedback/information hoping it might someone else too who is in a similar situation as me owning the original Abound. First of all, this product seems very sturdy. I purchased this rack though a store (sports basement) for my Aventon Abound even though the description says it is meant for the SR and LR models only. I was able to fit this on my Abound but had to fill in some gap (in blue arrows in my picture)with a couple of washers. Also, the points shown in the green arrows is where I felt that the rack was pushing against the cables but this is a minor thing and doesn't hurt anything. I have left it at that but I may decide to open up the cables a bit in future if I feel necessary.
Aventon team, wondering if the product description should be modified to suggest this is compatible with the original Abound too? If not then I couldn't find a substitute for the original Abound. Also, one other thing I noticed from whatching a few assembly videos is that the original abound pizza rack was rated for 15KGs back in the day whereas this one is rated at 25 KG. So, definitely this one is sturdier.
