    I have a dry cleaners in my building so all I bring in each day is underwear but, especially during the winter, I bring in other clothing configurations for the bike. At the moment I have 2 jackets in my bag (one warm, one waterproof), waterproof trousers, thick waterproof gloves and deoderant, assos cream ect in my bag.

    Although not especially heavy, all that kit is probably quite bulky, having said that though there are some pretty big saddle bags available, whether or not they would work for you is another thing!!

    I have this and it works well, although I have the smaller one and to carry a shirt and lunch its fine. It also means you dont need a rack at all.

    There is also a sqr mount which will work with a smaller bag (I am not sure it works with a larger one) but to be honest with a smaller bag you probably dont need it.

    And this thread has something on a carbon bike
