Rear rack on 2013 Giant Defy 0

[sleepingdog]

Please forgive my ignorance here but I am a complete novice when it comes to bike tech.

Is it possibly to fit a rear rack to my Defy 0? I have the threaded lugs near the gears but there aren't any others. How can I fix the rack to a second point on the bike? Can I use a clamp adapter at the top of the frame?

Could you recommend what kit I need?

Cheers.

I've not idea what size seat tube you have, but I use one of these - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Passport-...ikeparts_SR&hash=item53f92ba50a#ht_707wt_1164

The seat tube is carbon fibre, read somewhere that you can't use that kind of mount on carbon fibre, but have no idea if that's accurate?

P clips or a seat post clamp that has a mount for the racks top supports.

You obviously need one the right width for your frame /post
