I'm surprised that a bike shop would consider doing that, since they will be held responsible when it explodes and kills him. The safer option would be to use the brake centre bolt and axle as the mounting points, since you know you can feed loads into the frame at those points. Anywhere else and you're just guessing at whether the carbon lay up will tolerate the loads.
