stock for your rack mounting hole.

this was using a pair of aluminum supports from a scooter
shop junk bin. configuration of the dropouts made it
difficult to mount the rack. total cost a couple bucks
for bolts and washers and locknuts.

could prolly do something similar with a pair of stainless
steel mending plates from the home depot.
I did something very similar to a bike that did not have rack mount. Fashioned a piece of flat aluminium.
