Fitted new panniers today.

Try some padding on the seat, and maybe a more normal centre stand.:) :beerjug:

How many litres those take?
They look like quite roomy.

It never ceases to amaze me that manufacturers will quote capacity in litres or cubic feet.

Most people measure stuff in inches (or for those who have swallowed the EU fantasy in mm).

So, how big are they? Height? Width? Length?

You're right - I've said 2 metres - for years... - Five foot eighteen if anyone is confused.

Hi Noddy

How do they lock? The catches at the back look like a wire cutter would slice through them. Is there a more secure means of locking them?
 
Thats some centre stand - does it come with the panniers :D

Excellent.
No.
Excellent.
Over center catches pull the lid onto a waterproof rubber seal.
Tight, as in sprung, caution needed on first opening !
Yes most definately.
Unpolished, mark free aluminium.
Negotiate your own discount yer bugger !

Outside dimentions are, 15" high, 17" long and 10 1/2" wide, excluding the lids.

Over center catches are lockable with a padlock, and the loop is made from spring steel.

The wheelbarrow has been that way since I reversed into it,
it does go round left hand bends better than to the right.

If they were stolen tonight I would order another pair, I wouldn't be able to afford it, but I would still order them.
 
You must be a memeber of the green party. I see the bottle banks for clear & green, where's the brown? Or haven't you fitted the top box yet?
 
Blimey Noddy, I almost didn't recognise your bike with her 'clothes' on :D
