Help with rack

I'm trying to find a rear rack that doesn't require the little bolt hole things in the seat stay. My frame doesn't have those... I saw this https://www.jensonusa.com/Racks/Plane...rack-WHardware but I can't really tell where it mounts. Any help?

Thanks in advance everyone

Every rack I have ever bought new has come with rubber coated clamps to use on bikes without the braze-ons.

Sweet. Can you send my a link to one of the racks you bought so I can be sure?

There are options, though: https://problemsolversbike.com/produc...th_rack_mounts

You can also get the p clamps from a hardware store for the stay mounts.

These are the racks I have bought in the recent past. I have uneeded clamps all over my worktable, so I'm pretty sure they came with clamps.

If you do happen to buy a rack without the clamps, they are easy to come by. I'd be happy to mail a set to you if needed.

I don't need any clamps, but you're awesome. This is one of the reasons I love this forum.
