Has anyone mounted a rear rack to Kudos Tornado or Typhoon?

Just wondering if anyone has mounted a rear rack on either of these bikes. They''re rear disc brakes, so I'm guessing only certain racks will fit.

Yes, I've fitted one to my Kudos Typhoon. I bought :

Then I bought: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Acor-Seat-Clamp-Carrier-Bosses/dp/B007ZBRX7K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397509124&sr=8-1&keywords=Acor seat clamp with carrier bosses

The 1st link is the rack and the second link is the seat clamp which you use to bolt the rack to. This replaces your quick release clamp.

Make sure you order the correct size of seat post clamp. It comes in different sizes.

I've had it on the Typhoon for nearly 500 miles and it's great. I carry my spare battery and tools and drinks bottles on it with no problems.

Check the picture of the rack before you buy it. it clamps to the seat clamp and the seat stays. There is no holes on the Typhoon to fit a normal rack.
