I put a rack on my racer. I load it up with about 25lbs max.


My LBS had a little retrofit kit to get it to work without the attachment points. Have been loving the rack for my commute.

I don't think I would put a huge amout of weight on it though. I also don't have the gearset to have tons of weight and expect to climb any hills.
