As tempted as I am to tap the hole to m5 I also want to fit my wald basket.
Have I seen a pair of axiom runners with double eyelets somewhere(looked like Mickey Mouse) or did I imagine it?Also, cheapish calipers of choice to clear mudguards and larger tyres? Ideally I'd use the compass Bon jons(35c) I have in the cupboard but surly info says 32 max with mudguards :/
Just ordered a pair of v-sprints for it.

The small hole near the Roller fork dropout is a vent hole it's not stated as a rack/guard mount hence why it's not threaded.
You will need a guard that P-clips to the fork legs (many to choose from)
Or something like these 2. However these are designed to slip over a 6mm Q/R axle end so will need drilling out if using 9/10mm bolt on track wheels.

Surly Roller fork details, no guard mounts.

Suppose you could thread the vent hole, position and bolt head size might not play well with some hubs though.
And certain Cervelo riders may take an interest in upcoming dentistry :)
