But thought it best to put up separate thread to help prevent engine dismount potential, noted elsewhere. Holds Trek bag nicely, and others as well.
Pics should explain.
Fasteners are SS .25-inch x 2.5-inch bolt at frame and 5mm hexhead screws connecting to stock GEBE engine support/mount. (Raleigh had unique attachment position for rear rack, which I drilled out for .25 hexhead bolt.)
Flat aluminum stock available most hardware type stores, and benchvise, large adjustable wrench, drill and .25-inch bit and smaller bit for 5mm holes. And, if preferred, a drill bit and tap for 5mm screws into the GEBE support - but locking 5mm nuts will work fine.
Have fun.
