Most commuter bikes & touring bikes have no suspension. The pannier load energy is directed at the wheels & leads to premature failure of the rims. The idea of a suspension pannier bracket would dampen the energy away from the wheels. It would have the same advantage for the load in the pannier IE Laptop. I came to realize some time ago that a laptop probably doesn't need this added protection but I am sure it would benefit from it. It is simply a concept that I thought I would throw out and see what people thought. I think I will make a working prototype & see if it is practical.
