Rear Rack for Cannondale Trail 6 with Disc brakes I was having a real trouble finding a suitable rear rack for my bike, a Cannondale Trail 6, with disc brakes.

My usual bike use is to the office (bag containing laptop, lunch, rain jacket, etc. with approx 7-8 kg. weight), but sometimes I do take my bike outdoors, which may or may not require a rear rack.

So, my expectations from the rack are:


Easy to remove them when not needed.
Something that goes in the rear wheel hub (in the quick release notch), not something attached to the frame.
To take on 12 kg. weight.
Easily installable and serviceable by me. :)


Please suggest some options. TIA.
Another option could be the Blackburn EX-1 rack. I've used it on my cross bike due to it not having rack mounts and it carried my bike camping supplies quite well. It also comes with the long skewer. Also compared to a lot of racks it is fairly cheap.

Might not be quite as easy to remove/install if you don't have rack mounts.
