Greetings fellow riders.
I don't do much long distance stuff, so panniers haven't been an issue for me yet, and buying a hard set is out of reach at this stage. But I do have the possibility of a three day trip at the start of next year and I'm looking at some strap on panniers.
I came across a post here about a DIY frame, which might be helpful http://nc700-forum.com/forum/nc700-mods/5014-more-rack-work-saddlebags-post74987.html#post74987
My question is whether needing to unstrap the bags to fill up is too much of a nuisance. I'd also be interested in hearing any pros and cons of this kind of setup.
Thanks for your thoughts.
