Hey all,

To start, thanks for any advice, but I am of the camp that carbon bikes (in general) shouldn't have a problem pulling a trailer with a medium load (15 lbs). My question is specific to my Scott Addict frame as it has carbon droupouts. From what I read these days, carbon seems to be as strong as the steel that is/was used in racing bikes as the steel was quite thin for weight advantage. Regardless, is there a consensus?

If it is ridiculous to contemplate, does anyone have any advice on a seat post rack with sidewalls for panniers?
