What is the thread size/pitch on cantilever posts?

Not the screw hole that is in the post, but the actual threads of the post that screw into the fork mounting tabs.

I am mounting a front rack on my Cannondale tandem. The bike is disk brake equipt, with no posts in the fork. I want to use the post mounting hole to anchor the rack to.

Thanks in advance,

Bikes: 1940s Fothergill, 1959 Allegro Special, 1963? Claud Butler Olympic Sprint, Lambert 'Clubman', 1974 Fuji "the Ace", 1976 Holdsworth 650b conversion rando bike, 1983 Trek 720 tourer, 1984 Counterpoint Opus II, 1993 Basso Gap, 2010 Downtube 8h, and...

All I know is: there are several different styles. I had to have a bike shop replace mine (and I do most of my own work). It was a cheap repair, though. Good luck!
