I've got one, it's alright. Only attaches at one point though so a bit prone to flex. Fine with a tent, 2 roll mats and a gallon of juice on though. But not good enough for proper weight.

£60 not bad, mine was £40 second hand mint condition. Dead easy to fit. And ah yes, remove the 5kg sticker, they work much better without it.

Out of curiosity, do you think I would offer servicing on SV's if I could not fit a rack

Yes that is what its says on the label, but I've had far more than that stuck on it, for instance a ten kilo tent and then some on top of that!
