I used the Pelago with the Ortlieb front rollers (12.5l each) and an Alp Kit dry bag on top. Like @Tijs I wish it had a longer mounting tube but for the smaller panniers it's okay. I'm not sure i'd fancy 40l panniers on there but people do!
In hindsight maybe I should have gone for the Soma Porteur, but at the time couldn't justify spending twice as much. For day to day use I love the Pelago though.
liked the simplicity of rack. mounts from 4mm laser cut steel
btw today saw Pelago front rack on a bicycle, and I wasn't excited as seeing it on web. it didn't looked perfect rack for panniers, as mounting tube is crazy short, and there is no much space for pannier bag to lean, maybe someone uses it and could say something about it, just curious ?
