Silvio rear rack, tail box

People are asking about a rear rack for the Silvio.

I included an M5 hole near the rear axle (left and right), and on the seat stay near the rear brake (left and right). I will design a special rack but until then it might be possible to find a rack that can be adapted.

The other question people raise is for a tail box. This is a little tricky, there are some interesting design concepts I am exploring. I don't like the pointy tail sock, I find it is pure structure and lacking in form: I want something more shapely, so as usual I am setting the bar high and will have to invest quite a bit of time to generate a good, lightweight result.
