Pelican cases / Caribou luggage / SW Motech

I think I have found the best hard luggage solution for anyone who wants to take their Tenere off-road seriously - Caribou Cases modify the Pelican 1550 cases with locks, lid retention straps, internal bungees etc. to make them better panniers, and have a very nice quick release mounting system and heavy duty rack...

Unfortunately, being a US company, they are reluctant to develop a specific mounting kit for the new Tenere (even though there is a global market out there... grrr.) but can supply their boxes to fit on the SW Motech quick release pannier frames, which are available for the new Tenere.

I'm tempted to get a set while I'm over here (infact standard Pelican cases are around $100 USD each), it's just a shame I can't use their pukka connecting system.

Does anyone have experience with the SW Motech pannier frames - how robust are they? and particularly the quick release mountings? I'm talking for trail use, not the M25 here...
