Bikes: Trek Soho S

I don't want to go the "rear rack w/panniers or folding baskets" route, and prefer to not mount a front basket.

Any suggestions?
What was the fit issue, exactly? Was it just a size / heel strike issue? The 535 is the biggest of the lot, they make a 520 (Med) and 570 (small, eyelets only)... the 520 & 535 are supposed to be able to mount to either the axle or to eyelets.
