London is high risk with good reason, which means sad outcomes for me. Accident rate is high; theft is high. It's just a pain is the ass really, and barely justifiable to have a bike here. It WAS a commuter, but now I work from home so that reason isn't a big one.
I will be using it for some backroad adventures soon with the girlfriend. Not going to sell it just yet. Just heat tested the new pannniers against the Akra's and it seems they don't get hot enough to melt.
