This is likely a characteristic of my frame (Pompino) but I'll check
to see if it's common; the LBS have fitted my Speedhub now, but

Must be your frame or LBS.
SJS's Speedhub equipped ready to roll bikes have racks.

Maybe it is a question of whether the frame has rholoff dropouts.
SJSC Ravens do. The Pompino doesn't and needs a torque arm which
might foul more braze-ons. New braze-ons would probably be the most
elegant solution
