Holan Nomad Panniers

[roundincircles]

Any body experience this company (Polish) and their products. I want top loading alu or lightweight panniers at a sensible price as I will not off road and tour 3 times year.

The Nomads have the exhaust cut out so they claim to have the narrowest overall width.

Are they practical, trustworthy, value for dosh etc.

Any views welcome.

My prejudice is that TT are price prohibitive (ok expensive) and can't wait for the other Brands

I'm on the verge of ordering TT zega pro panniers for mine,free locks and inner bags until 12th April.
However,I've taken my existing ADV panniers to a local fabricator this morning,having had a look at the panniers and some photo's of the new bike he assures me that they can do a professional job and make them fit the new bike,estimated maximum cost would be £300 although he did say it could be a lot less.

A lot cheaper than TT zega pro panniers,and although I would imagine I'd get £400 for my panniers and rails it still warrents serious consideration,plus I really like my panniers.

So,in real terms do I spend £500 + my existing panniers on having new Zega pro panniers or £300 on having my existing panniers altered ?

It's a worry.

A guy over on ADVrider has them and they actually look pretty good. Have a search under the LC threadfest, and you'll see. He only posted pics yesterday, so they'll be towards the end of the thread

I bought a top Nomad top box and rack and am very pleased with them. I went for the Peli Cases as side boxes. Holan were very easy to deal with and sent the goods promptly.
