you can always alter the rack fittings so it sits higher and further back..
OR just put the panniers on a rack on the front fork ..
that is how I setup my Bike Friday, a front rack only.
I would prefer to have to just have a back rack, but yes, I may consider adding a front rack. I think the Ortlieb Classic does not have the ability to sit at an angle, while the Plus' do. I'd like to hear from availpunk about his set up. As I got the Ortlieb's from REI, I can return them whenever, so I may just hold on to them until the bike gets in, and then try the set up out. Thanks guys! Any other advice would be great.
