4/3 Need some advice from tom or tom-clones. I'm actually using my
mountain bike in SF now and I bought some panniers but the metal
loops that hook onto the back of the bike rack thing are so tiny as
soon as I hit a pothole they fall off the bike. What's a good one to
get that has long loops so they won't fall off the bike? I don't know
why this is so hard, in Europe the loops are about 2-3 inches long
and much bigger so there is never an issue -eric
\_ Generally panniers have some sort of elastic cord which attaches
to the bottom of the rack and keeps them in place. Yours don't
have anything like that? -tom
\_ I was wondering how that worked -- thx tom very helpful -eric
\_ losing weight helps too.
\_ Um, what? When they are empty they are most likely to
come off.
\_ oh, nevermind. I thought it was a case of the
thing (pannier) being too heavy hence they fall
off. Then again, I have no idea what a pannier is.
I hate bikers, and I hate the SF Mass Chaos, it's
making SF as unpleasant as LA to live in.
\_ Move. Everyone will be happier.
\_ It is only once a month, how could it have that much
effect? |
