I have recently gone part time at work ( a 4 day week, Yipee) and want to spend some time getting to know my country. I though I may do a bit of island hoping with the bike. Does anyone have any advice on pannier bags. There seems to be so many different types. They seem to vary in cost as well. Is it a case of "you get what you pay for" or are there adavantages to different styles? Pam, |

I had 2 large panniers on my bike and they were packed and really heavy, they were ok for my journey across wales but i do think they wont last long, get ones with strong clip ons and get covers incase it rains. mine were from halfords. |

That way they ride 5in lower giving much better stability; 10k miles & still going! Not waterproofed is no big deal they all leak from time 2 time I just put most things in big freezer reseal bags that way you can see what you have got out! By the way they have got a good range at Decathon stay safe Zoof |
