A vote for Arkels. Very well made, bright colors, extremely solid mounting hardware, and fitted rain covers to deal with Anne's point. I used GT-54s on the rear and GT-18s on the front for a fully loaded tour, and have used GT-18s front and back for smaller loads. Their handlebar bags are ugly, but very solidly mounted (with extremely easy on/off) and very, very useful, too.
From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Don Sent: Tuesday, October 09, 2012 1:50 PM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] panniers OK, having picked your brains quite successfully on the subject of lighting I now turn to the subject of panniers, front and rear. I have a very inexpensive Sunlight top bag and panniers and am looking to upgrade. These would be for several day trips for more extended open road touring. I have most of my camping gear but need to purchase panniers. I have now have front and rear Nitto racks on my Sam H. Any and all advice would be helpful including: new,used, brands, models, cheap, expensive. The while enchilada.
