I've put about 1100 miles of abuse on them nuxx, through all sorts of terrain. Not a single issue, no rattles, squeaks, nothing. You'll enjoy them and they do draw a crowd. I'm waiting for the trunk rack, should be about the 20th. I've got the original T1 rack, if you're getting the newer version, it's even sexier. Plus if you're going all in, get both sets of bags, the light and the durable. It's an extra few bucks but well worth the investment.
