rack for Boardman team carbon

knipper

Hi all
I am thinking of doing Milen to Mazin next summer.
I have a 2010 Boardman Team carbon.
It doesn't have any holes for rear or front racks.
Is there any rack recommended that would suit my bike or am I better off just carrying everything on my back.
I bought the rear rack in Aldi recently and thats when I realised the rack wouldn't fit my bike .
I doubt I will be doing any camping while on tour so the load should be light.
Thanks a mill

Plus http://www.wiggle.co.uk/tubus-cosmo-rear-rack/ (you have to use a tubus rack with the mounting system above)

Plus http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/salsa-rack-lock-seat-clamp-with-integrated-rack-mount-prod26571/ (make sure you buy the correct diameter)

Or you could buy a cheap trailer amazon.

As it's a carbon frame I wouldn't recommend doing either of these. Others may tell you everything would be fine and they might be correct. But I think you are stumped.

Don't fit a rack to carbon. Ever.

Buy a large saddlebag and a handlebar bag if you need to.
