Wanted - Ortlieb QL2.1 hook insert reducers (10mm)

Morning all!

I got a bargain pair of Ortlieb panniers off FB marketplace recently but unfortunately, they didn't include the hook reducer inserts with them.
The default width is 16mm so they rattle around horrendously on my rear rack which has 10mm tubing.

Does anyone have any 10mm inserts lying around in a drawer I could buy?

Thanks

Quite often people just wrap their rack with tape (self-amalgamating plumbers' tape works well) or zip-tie inner tube around it. It saves on worrying about losing inserts in the future and is cheap too.

I considered that but I have a larger pair that already have these inserts and I want the option to swap between the two sizes depending on how much I need to carry. Adding the padding on the bar would make them too large for my other set.

Thanks though :)

Yes I do I think
Let me check later

Amazing, thanks!

Still looking for these if anybody has any lying around in a drawer somewhere

Rich sorry I'll look this afternoon and get back to you

I've,found Lyon (UK distros) super helpful when it comes to Ortlieb spares, just drop them a note and they'll sort you out (probably)

Just buy some nylon tube, split length wise to fit.

or possibly

As I mentioned above I'd prefer not to reduce the width of the rack as I have other panniers I use that fit it.

If split length wise just remove when not needed? That will fulfil your requirement not to change the size of the rack permanently.

Like so, the red foam can be removed as it has a longitudinal split.

Nice, that's not a bad idea if I can't source some of the inserts. Thanks :)

Thanks for this recommendation, I heard back from Lyon today and they are going to send out a pair of inserts free of charge.

Happy Monday!
