• In my experience the vaude aqua light panniers are also super solid with 1 extra hook. Wanted a rack for a rando bag upfront and couldn't mount anything cages anymore on my fork as a result. The panniers sit a bit higher on the Specialized pizza rack, works better then lowriders for trails. Current setup is for a 2 month trip.

  • Yes. They stop the rails cracking, and also the bag from bouncing around.

  • The bagman would be useless without the support struts for my camper longflap. It's a pretty solid setup but I'm going to replace the screw that holds it on the saddle rails with a longer one so i can put a nut on top. The screw does tend to loosen after a while.

    The saddle is an infinity seat. Basically you sit on anything but the sitbones. It popped up on marktplaats and thought to give it a try. So far like the saddle alot, no saddle sores.

    I'm only on day two of my trip, but i hope I'm still as enthusiastic about this setup in two months time.
