Hi Magnus. Thanks for your blog and all of your very helpful comments here. I have an aluminum Swift and the Nashbar front rack. It's been great, especially easy to use with a backpack hooked over the handlebars.

I sold my car a few weeks ago and finally bought a pair of Ortlieb Front Roller Classic panniers. You mentioned that your Ortliebs fit the Nashbar rack (and promised pictures way back in this thread!), but I can't seem to get mine on securely. What are you hooking the large clip on the bottom onto? I can just get it to contact the bottom of the rack but there's still a fair bit of wiggle. The Ortliebs are fabulous and I don't want to send them back.

Thanks!
