Oxford Sports Panniers - SV650.org

SoulKiss · 01-09-06, 10:32 AM

Anyone got a set of these?

Looking for some pics of them - mostly of the bits that go on the bike - both on and off would be good.

Interested in how they fit on the bike and if they have any sort of mechanism that will stop them swinging around

I have a set for mine, travelled well and at speed. They dont move about. If they are the 3 strap tpe then, its one under the seat, one behind the grab rail and one over the seat. Then bungeethem to the hooks.

I have them .. and they are can be awkward to fit onto the bike for the first time.

With the pack comes a piece of rubber material that will stop the panniers from scratching your bike so once the pillion seat is off cut holes in the material to fit across and ensure that the pillion seat will still fit back on the bike.

Take your pillion seat off then there are three straps that attach via velcro to the panniers .. take two of them these go under the seat.. put the seat back on and then the third goes over the top

You then have some trailing straps which you can attach to the pillion footpeg holes and then the last straps are able to be attached to the rail under the pillion seat.

I have them, the rivets popped out of the top plastic part so I'm going have to send them off to be repaired.

My Oxford sports panniers only have two staps

Also my sister got a set from free of Freecycle, they had only been used once!

I am planning on making my own version of these in leather,

Main reason (would be easier and cheaper to get the Oxfords TBH) is so that I can make it a bit modular and have different panniers for different things - I do a few LAN parties a year, so one pannier built to carry my LCD monitor (on left side away from exhaust) and another on the right to hold the stand - one would be long, tall but thin, the other more square and long.

Then my PC (Shuttle Case if anyone is interested) could take the pillion seat

Also then thinking of making bags similar to the Oxford ones for day-to-day (tho may be custom as far as inside compartments go.

Also Oxford seem to say Two Under, one Over, but the other post says all under (what I am aiming for) - has anyone tried both ways? If so - was there any difference?
