Alpos panniers
Hi Dazzer, thinking of using Alpos boxes as the price seems really good, how are you getting on with them? are they robust and waterproof? would they survive much punishment? thanks Paul

Hi Paul
I have had these Alpos Pannies for a few year's and they have been on a few bike's. They have been great vale for money,and water tight. I dont know how they would stand up to a big off,but I have dropped other bike's with them on and they have not been damaged. |
Alpos
Thanks for that thumbs up Dazzer, ive just placed my order for a pair of std? 36 litre boxes for �150. Was considering peli cases but want to mount some 5 litre cans on the front by passenger pegs (seems to be plenty of room looking at your pics) which i wouldnt be able to do with the Peli. also theres room on top of box lids for strapping gear.

Alpos panniers arrived
Alpos panniers arrived, unpacked one and decided (unfortunately cos they are cheap) to send them back! probally ok for comuting or casual use, but ive seen stronger constructed biscuit tins! I think after a few serious bike drops they would be toasted. So ive now ordered the 1550 Peli cases which hopefully are virtually indestructable and will suit my Ewan Mcgregor style of riding better!

Dazzer, Would you mind telling me where you got your fuel cans from, and how they bolt up to your top rack? I'm in the market for a similar, if not identical setup to yours. Thanks in advance, John BTW - your PM inbox is full! |
thanks for letting me know about the mail box.
The fuel cell's have been mounted to a Touratech rack,but it could not hold the extra weight,so I had to fit 2 more suport's. I will get a new photo which will show the suport's . I have now moved the cell's 3 inch more to the rear,to allow more room for my pillion,with a airhawk pad fitted,it allow's that bit more room on the seat for 2. here is the email address of Jim Webber,he is the chap that you need to contact to order the cell's If you mention That I passed on his address,he is very good to deal with,and they offer a first class service. My order arrived in less than a week. jwebber@kolpinpowersports.com |

if your wanting Panniers that are very very strong,have a look at these http://www.cajasahel.com/ there are a few make's that will take a big knock. Maybe Alpos are not making them as good as they used to,the old one's I have are as well made as the Touratech one's,but are about half the price. The E Mc riding style.....does that mean falling off alot :biggob: |
