Does anyone have any panniers they would recommend?
No mudguards., Ortlieb are going to keep the stuff in the bags clean and dry.
there are other welded seam bags too, other construction type,
Sewing.. sewing is holes, so will leak, ,
then you have to poly bag the contents, as it will get damp in there..
Or have a rain cover to go on the outside ..
Short chainstays mean you may hit the bags with your heels ,
one solution, put a rack on the front wheel and bags go there ..
