Thanks for the info. My other Specialized I used a Seatpost rack and slicks, with no fenders ( I was brave). To muddy the waters, the same guy also mentioned that he has a Cannondale, looks to be a 3.0 frame) which I have owned in the past as well. My old Canny would take a rear bolt on rack no problem, so for 150....do I go Specialized Ultra again, or Cannondale? Both frames are the right size, but one is Aluminum (Cannondale) and the other is Steel.
Heres a pic of his Cannondale. My other Specialized was purchased from him in almost new condition (it was a mid 90s and Mint!) so im not worried about either one physically, just which is the better overall bike, and is the Alum frame anything I should take into consideration being 265.
