Rear rack on Fuji feather 2015

Hey guys I'm thinking of buying a Fuji feather as a commuter in nyc. But the problem is there's no holes for a rear rack. I wanted to add a rear rack and a basket to carry stuff for school and bags. Especially cuz my back gets super sweaty when wearing a backpack. I was wondering if anyone was able to add a rear rack to their feather? I saw one guy that drilled holes into the frame or I also read that p clips could work but also read to avoid them. What do you guys think?

You are thinking about getting a Bike , Its all vapor ..

Where You actually Go to Buy The Bike

they will give you a 10% discount on stuff like Bike racks then, If anything Like My Local

And Put it on, before You leave ..

Load Up on extras at Point of sale to take advantage of that discount and services ..

But realistcally, why not pick another model with all the necessary Mounts planned for?



even single speeds .. they made some to fit mudguards

there is a back pack and a seat tube bracket from Klick Fix of Germany

to not have to wear it until you arrive and lock up your Bike

Fixie in NYC they steal then a lot don't they?

Haha this will be my 3rd bike in nyc but I have bike storage in my apartment now. I chose the feather cuz I love it aesthetically. If you have any other options around the price range that would be great but looks similar. I'm also buying it on Craigslist so no lbs discount.

I'll check out the kick flix!
