    Thanks Eags ;)

    I am not getting any work done at the moment :huh: Checking on the spots. I don’t think Crash has turned his back on after leaving Trangie??

    It looks like Ace and Strucky are going well too.

    Actually you are probably right Ollie! The problem is that he has his head set on a 250F :unsure:

    I have 20ltr water bottles with the tops cut off to fit inside my pannier bags and large holes cut in the bottom for emergency drainage. I have TB`s old Andy`s bags though, not Wolfman,,,

    Only used the liners once,,, They hold the bags in perfect shape and make it easy to pack and strap them onto my frames,,,
    But, as pointed out by a bloke we know,,, Can be painful in the event of a fall onto the side if your leg gets trapped (same as hard cased pannier boxes) :whistle:
    Also not much use if only taking minimal gear and wanting to roll the bags down at the top to reduce size. For example, Gauranteed pub stays etc when not carting as much camping/cooking gear,,,

    I pack all heavier items like tools, spare tube, container of spare part/nuts and bolts etc down low and the lighter gear on top. Also thinking of as even distribution of weight from side to side .

    Maybe use those containers towards the back of the bags and softer gear to the front maybe ???

    Plenty of experiences to be shared on here anyway from the ADV crew that have tried and tested all this sort of stuff ;)

    Good Luck with it,,, you will end up packing, unpackin and repacking numerous times each trip anyway from experience :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Cheers Eags, thanks for the info ;)
