This is an interesting and timely thread for me, because I'm converting my Cypress into a "shopping" bike. I have the rack, now I have to decide on panniers. I'm going to start using it to do grocery shopping. Probably have to make more trips to the store, because I usually bring home 9-10 bags of stuff each time. Oh well, more pedaling, fresher food, more exercise, what's to complain about?
