Kind of resurrecting an old post. Had a few more questions or concerns.
If I road with a rack like this
http://www.rei.com/product/743341 on my Cannondale Synapse 7 will I have any issues with the rack hitting my rear tire? I've read a few posts saying some people had issues with the rack swaying and rubbing the tire.
Would it be safer to go with a rack like this?:

If I did go with this rack:
http://www.rei.com/product/697821 I see people screw it to the base of their rear seat stays but on my Synapse I don't see where I would screw it to the frame.
Any ideas?
