rfi - looking for happy trails pannier owners
Posted: Tue Sep 26, 2000 3:20 pm
Tom: I am in the process of discussing with Tim Bernard a special order
modification to the panniers' lower outside edge. I told him I want to mount
the panniers low enough so I can use a Rev Pack inverted U-shape duffle bag
between me and the Mondo tail box. The duffle bag hangs down 6" over the tops
of the panniers on each side. I want Tim to cut an angle 30-40 degrees at the
bottom of the panniers because they will be mounted lower than usual and the
angle should allow leaning without scraping the ground. I will be interested
in your documentation of the installation procedure. Sounds like it isn't a
piece of cake with Tim's instructions or lack of such. I know my placement of
the panniers may differ from yours, but there is probably some commonly
useful information to be gained from your experience. Please send me a copy
or post the documentation. Thanks.
