All good points - thanks for the feedback! I've never liked riding front heavy but try to balance loads about 3/4 on back and 1/4 on front. This alleviates issues whilst climbing and I feel keeps handling as nimble as possible.
Ortlieb rollbacks don't look as cool though - I feel that. Maybe I'll try shifting the weight around a bit and see if I change my mind
