That gave me a face-palm moment. I have always attributed the swaying on my bike to the frame, not the rack. So I wondered why I didn't get that nasty swaying feeling anymore when the panniers were loaded, and I vaguely thought something about the loads being smaller or similar. It was until I read what you wrote that I realized the swaying stopped after I put on my Tubus Logo rack.
