I am going off road touring with panniers and my full sus bike. I bought a seat post mount Raleigh
pannier rack and rode it to test ( loaded up with only 7kg ). What a disaster, the rack waggled from
side to side (the rubber pads moved in the clamp ) and the panniers rack rails flexed so much on
hitting a big bump that the pannier mounting brackets touched the rear wheel. I did take great care
to fit it well and to tightly attach.
I cannot believe that a solid rack does not exist, after all think of the punishment a saddle gets
and it is mounted to the frame in a similar manner.
Has anyone had success with any design or is there any helpful advice?
Thanks, Julian
