SW Rack details - PDF

Here is the PDF for the SW rack that would go on the Tenere to fit the Caribou system, http://www.mo-tech.de/anbauanleitungen/kft_06_570_200.pdf [/

Have a had a quick look and I like that the frame can come off easily so when not using panniers you don’t look like a pizza delivery bike. So for a prolonged offroad trip I would replace � turn fasteners with bolts and lock nuts, The Caribou cases already have a quick detach system from the frame.

Then for future use assuming you may use the pannier for a weekend away I would go back to � turn fasteners.

I also like that it uses the intended fixing points on the frame , although I would not bolt it to the rear mudguard, that is going to be chopped anyway

Or for plan B I would just bolt cases to the frame and use the 1/4 turn fasteners as the quick detach

Any comments
