FS: vintage Kirtland Tour Paks - front and rear!

SOLD!!

Go on tour with these lovely time capsules!

First on display: a set of kelly-green front and rear Kirtland Tour Paks. Made in the USA and built to last, with metal stiffeners. All zippers still work! Including some Arkel rain covers for the rears. The fronts are easy enough to put your gear inside of ziplocs inside of the panniers, which is what I used to do. For those who've never experienced a nice set of Kirtlands, note they snap together so you can carry two in one as a sort of suitcase. It's really handy for travel or camping. Asking $125 shipped for the set. That won't get you a set of two on evilbay, but you can get the full set of 4 here.

REAR:




FRONT:





Will take Venmo (preferred), bitcoin, money order, google cash app, cash in an envelope, or (if you must), paypal F&F. If price seems unreasonable, make me a reasonable offer.

Fantastic bags... I just pulled my set of rear ones out for a dust-off. If I lived in the US I would take those babies right away. Good luck selling them. They will make someone very happy. Cheers!

Ahh, a Welshman! I toured through Wales with my family when I was only 14. I can still remember the day we rode up to Lake Vyrnwy and breaking a spoke outside Y Bala. We bought a chain whip from RH Roberts Cycles there and the proprietor was kind enough to cut the handle off it for us to lighten the weight.

Those were beautiful roads. We made it through Wales in a week or so, but the roads there were the most memorable cycling I've ever experienced. I wish I could go back for a longer time.

I could look up the postage for these bags. It may not be so much as you'd think.

edit: SOLD!
