I'm not going to say I'm an expert at this, just offering a solution that I used successfully. The rack mounts to a quickrelease and the brake boss, so there are no clamps on carbon tubes and no rack mounting hardware required on the bike.
I haven't seen any seatpost racks that are OK on carbon, or that can carry more than about 10 pounds. The Fly rack, while expensive, is a real rack rated to 40 pounds, and weighs less than a pound, so it seemed like a great solution to me.
That's all I got.
