Re: Panniers fitting kits ?
Unfortunately it's sometimes better to go with Touratech. They make rails for such a wide range of bikes that if you buy good quality panniers and fit pucks to suit Touratech rails then if you change the bike you punt the rails out on eBay and buy new to suit the pucks that you've already got on the panniers.
I wouldn't buy the panniers from them because that's going too far but sometimes you need to look at the bigger picture and a few years ahead. Used Touratech rails go for stupid money so the cash difference between buying them new and selling them used is often less than a set of cheaper alternatives you'd find it harder to sell later.

That's the very company I was thinking of buying panniers from to fit my hepco becker rack, and yes I know they supply fittings, it's just in case I end up buying other ones.
there is no way I'm paying £200+ for a touratech rack when I already have a rack.
