I recently bought a Cannondle M500 with a P-Bone Aluminium Fork (as seen on the picture, though this is not mine)
I absolutely adore the bike and would love to make it even more versatile by adding Cargo-carrying capabilities (i.e cargo mounts on the fork) to it. I‘m planning a bikepacking trip to Morocco, and want to take this bike with me.
Has anybody experience wirh adding rivnuts to aluminium forks? The P-Bone fork seems pretty sturdy built. Is it safe? Would you recommend other methods?
How would you proceed in increasing the cargo carrying capabilities?

On a fork with no eyelets for rack just front fender and what your doing with it I would go with a pelago with their low rider attachment.
Not many options
I definitely would NOT do that, it’s sketchy even on steel but on Aluminum it’s a no-go.
You can use stainless hose clamps under strips of inner tube to attach Blackburn cages to fork legs. I use this method on my suspension fork and it is very stout.
Old man mountain fork mounts instead? Don’t drill
