Ortlieb Office Bag 2 - potential problem
Ok, so my cheap panniers were fine and all, but with the rack I've got, I have to position them forward, so they don't drag on the spokes (triangular rack support shape - without the extra supports that some have), and a combination of me filling the thing right up, and my heel striking means the one I've been using split yesterday. Guess that's why they were £16.
So, I'm thinking about springing for the Ortlieb Office Bag 2, but here's the rub. I use one bike to ride to the station, and then I'm planning to have another waiting at the station in London for me. So I need 2 sets of quick release doohickeys for the racks. Is that even possible? I can't find anywhere to buy them separately, and if it IS possible, is it expensive?
