It would be good to hear your feedback after you use these bags on a trip mate, and if you've had to fight with the removal of them. Thanks for the video. Cheers!
Hey, very nice setup. I’m interested in the same thing. Could you tell me the dimensions of the pannier racks on Ali espress? I’m interested in the 48-liter Rhino ones. I want to see if they are compatible or if they are too large. Have you thought about whether you could do without the straps over the top of the seat and place them under the seat, or maybe modify them and attach them to the screws of the pannier racks? I’m very interested in your opinion. Best regards and thanks a lot.
@@150_ADVenture Thank you for watching. I find them very handy and so far they get the job done. A bit of a hassle to mount but putting all my luggage inside a pillow case each side, makes it easy to remove.
Thank you for your feedback. The first initial setup took me some time to get the straps setup and to figure out where they would go. As soon as their setup and you know where the straps will be routed, it wouldn't take that long to take off and put back on the next time.
Thanks champ for detailing this video! Music was awesome! The racks look great but the bags are definitely complicated. Ill never forget riding all day & till midnight getting into Innamincka & it was pitch black. No way I would undo those straps after being absolutely shagged. Is there any other way to strap them down? Cheers!
The bags are only a bit complicated upon the first initial setup on the bike as all the straps need adjusting. After that there are 2 quick release clips(each side) and the one strap that runs around the back that will need weaving through a buckle. But yes, there might be simpler options available. I'm personally not a big fan of hard case panniers as they are way too wide for my liking and I'm sure after a couple of drops they will not look so good anymore. Ha Ha... I'm happy to provide these videos so we all can see what will work for us. I'm also learning in the process. Once again, thank you for watching and stay tuned for more.
Hi Diablo,and thank you for watching. I haven't used mine without the racks, but I think they will be very floppy and loaded with weight I don't think that is something you want. That will affect the handling of the bike. You would also want to keep them away from going under the rear wheel arch.

Ha Ha, not a bad Idea... Maybe I should keep the pillowcases for that... The Mrs would kill me!🤣 I'll see after my first long trip if it's a struggle and adjust from there. Thank you for your feedback and stay tuned for more videos...
Definitely yes... thin dry bags or plastic bags to go inside the saddlebags. The saddlebags are never getting off my bike, When I don't use them I'll probably remove the inserts and roll them tight onto themselves.
@@EddyOtway Hi Eddy and thanks for watching. You don't need it, it's just an ocd thing for me to keep it's original shape. I want straight lines on the seams.
Muy buena idea compañero 😊👌👌👌
Reallly good video my friend

A very detailed run through, thank you. what size bags are they?
Hi David, thank you for watching. Sides are 2x 14ltr and the centre is 20ltr. Links are in the description
@@hein3g Thank you.
Gday mate, thanks for the video...how did your panniers work out in the end ?
@@150_ADVenture Thank you for watching. I find them very handy and so far they get the job done. A bit of a hassle to mount but putting all my luggage inside a pillow case each side, makes it easy to remove.
@hein3g cheers for that.
Wow that looks like a lot of messing about taking them off and putting back on for next days ride when camping
consider the aluminum ones or shad which has mounting bracket for their line of bags already available.

@@metalsadmanu r right horrible system
The idea is you are never taking them off. Pack whatever goes in there in thin dry bags and get these out when you need them.
Could you just mount the bags without having to buy the MT side brackets?

@@hein3g you're absolutely right. Hard panniers are inflexible.
Hi! Are the side racks really necessary to be able to use the bags? Or you could do it wothout them?
And which size are your bags?
Hi Diablo,and thank you for watching. I haven't used mine without the racks, but I think they will be very floppy and loaded with weight I don't think that is something you want. That will affect the handling of the bike. You would also want to keep them away from going under the rear wheel arch.
@@hein3g Fair enough, thanks for your thoughts!
@@hein3g Which size are your bags anyway?
@@Diablorf Mine are the medium size available which is 14Ltr each. Then I have the one I strap over the top that is another 20Ltr.
@@hein3g I thought yours are the large size (24L each). The 14L bags look bigger on the bike then I thought.
Thanks for the video - im pretty sure you didnt mention in the video where the pannier plate/racks that are bolted to the bike were from?
Thank you for your feedback and I Apologize for that.

Lekker vids, you Auckland based? my plates also start with C2Y so I have a guess we got our bikes from the same place. we should go for a ride.
@@konraddorfling Hey Pella, nee jong... I'm based in Wellington.
@@hein3g dit is 'n jammer! That's a bit far for a ride. Keep the vids going and enjoy the bike. Loving mine
Need a bag to go inside those bags because they look like a pain to keep taking off and on✌🏽

Not sure why you need the foam inserts, taking up space. Fell asleep after 4 mins lol
