manxie49 Posted September 17, 2019 Author Posted September 17, 2019 Lovely bike!How do you rate the panniers?Are they hard or soft, waterproof,stable?How do they attach?Cheers. Panniers will be fine for a long weekend, semi rigid in construction and come with waterproof liners for your clothes, as they supply waterproof liner with them I'm going to assume that they're not waterproof, as a precaution I've treated them with Nikwax water repellant spray. I rode with them on today, very stable, in fact I didn't even know they were there. Three metal attachment lugs on a steel frame, locked with a key into position, easy to take off and on, can fit a helmet inside well. They're pretty unobtrusive and don't get in the way when filtering. Quote

Any questions just ask. Hey Geofferz, what type of tyre pressure gauge are you using for the front wheel?? I have three in the garage and none of them will get into the valve and make a decent seal to check the pressure Quote
Smithers Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Cracking machine you got there [mention]manxie49[/mention] Quote
manxie49 Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 Cracking machine you got there @manxie49 Cheers Smithers, just trying to find a tyre pressure gauge that I can use on the front wheel valve, about enough room for a five year olds hands! Quote
