I've ridden a lot with low rider panniers on a tubus Tara front rack.
Low weight means very nice handling around corners, and you just get used to the ride feel with them.
For a paved trip, or regular dirt roads, it's fine.
So many options, I'd recommend figuring out what volume you really need and then you'll have a better idea of options you'd like to consider.
Yes, It is getting slightly cooler here so I can break out the gear and do a couple of S24Os using my current pannier and rear rack setup. Nothing like a trial run to figure out what you knew at one time, but seemed to have forgotten
