Any real world experience with the Velo Orange saddle loops on here?
Not used the VO ones exactly. But I have used some cheaper equivalents in the same design, that I got from Condor I think, for years. They have been fine for a fully-laden Super C Saddle Bag with and without a bagman for commuting and longer journeys. Make sure the inside edges are all smooth (had to file mine as they frayed the edge of the leather straps). Took a little tweaking to get the position right on the rails and then I left them on. Will see if I have a pic.
Edit: checked Condor and they don't seem to do them anymore.
