Thank you Lasse for getting the thread back on track.

I know that the Tubus steel is better quality, but it's also 2-3 times more expensive. Anyway, Tubus/Ortlieb makes the full Racktime line so although Racktime is aluminum, the quality is excellent. I'm also not going to be doing fully loaded self contained 1000+ mile tours. I'm starting out with week long Adventure Cycling Inn to Inn tours and will work my way up from them.

The TourIt is still available at one or two sites but most only sell the AddIt.

I have Racktime TravelIt panniers with the QL-1 attachment system so adjustment to fit should be no problem.
