I hope that OTR can supply a kit to mount "whatever type of cases" to the SWM quick-lock EVO rack. I do like the ease of attaching the cases with that system. And as it goes for robustness... -If it is good enough for that guy travelling down through Africa and this guy struggeling to get his F800GS unstuck
--- LINK --- Then it will be good enough for me.
FIY Farnell in Sweden offers a pelicase "copy" that isn't cheap enough. But on th UK site it is less than half price. --- LINK --- |
Finished product!
I wanted to give you an update with the finished product.
I went for the SWM quick-lock EVO pannier racks, from OTR. Made the easiest mount possible with 4 M6 bolts from the inside of the case through the EVO rack. I think the result is great for the cost of 370 Euro. The cases are slim on the bike, sturdy and waterproof and doesn't look too bad. http://se.fotoalbum.eu/images1/20100...6/00000011.jpg Low-tech fastening system. There are two pieces of metal bar inside the case. http://se.fotoalbum.eu/images1/20100...6/00000012.jpg http://se.fotoalbum.eu/images1/20100...6/00000013.jpg http://se.fotoalbum.eu/images1/20100...6/00000014.jpg http://se.fotoalbum.eu/images1/20100...6/00000015.jpg 78cm wide is slim, for hard luggage. On the other hand they are only 18 liters each, which I guess will be ok combined with a medium Givi top case, and possibly the camping gear strapped to the passenger seat. |
Nice looking cases - suits the bike imo and at a good price.:smilies0346:

Excellent idea and well executed.:115: The volume is about the same as my Metal Mule panniers but considerably cheaper and I bet much much lighter.
Well done that man. |

Are you happy with the size of your panniers? I am a little worried mine might be on the small side. |
