i'm looking to put it on my trek 7300 17.5 in frame is it to large for this small frame size? i'm concerned with heal clearance are sunlite products of good quality? thanks steve

890 cu inches isn't a lot of capacity. You average backpack holds about 2000. However, it does look to be a little larger than most trunk racks... just don't expect it to cart a change of clothes and a lunch.

I have no idea about the rack. It does have 3 vertical supports which is really nice when trying to keep your bag from rubbing up against a fender stay or even a spoke. However, I don't see how it attaches to the seat stay... they probably dropped that out of the photo.

I also have a SUNLITE and am looking for a correct pannier.
