I use it all the time as it's nice to be able to see what's there by just looking down. BTW mr trail safety, your rack is much nicer looking!! Wanted to check in and update about the rack:

Even so, this design seems like it would quickly develop a lot of play. There's just too many bolts holding way too many pieces together. Add some weight and vibration, etc. and that rack's going to be all loosy goosie in no time. If you’re building this, you’ll probably want to make use of thread-locking compound (Loctite, etc.).
