Also asked, can you put a rack on a road bike?
That means carrying rear panniers on a typical road racing bike isn't ideal. If you need even more capacity, for a long tour or camping trip, then you'll want to put panniers on the fork as well. You can get racks that put them up high, at the same level as rear racks, or down low by the wheel hub.
Subsequently, question is, what is the rack on the back of a bike for? Rear Rack. A rack provides a stable framework to hold gear on your bicycle. In good weather, items can be strapped directly to the rack without a cover. For foul weather or the ability to hold loose items together, bags such as rack trunks and panniers can be easily attached to the rear rack.

How do I choose a bike pannier rack?
Assuming you have a bike set up for a rack, or you know you can get a mounting system, it's time to choose a rack. The most common style of pannier rack is fitted to the rear of the bike – but you can also opt for a rack at the front too. If you're carrying a moderate load it's probably easier to go with the rear.
