Re: Another set of DIY Panniers...
Just had a look, has the same boxes as mine listed (£29.99) but out of stock at the moment, they do have these though:gary b wrote:Kidderminster army surplus are great, everything is available online so may be worth a look

£19.99 - Not quite as big, if my maths are right volumes below:
Mine = 365x440x190mm = 30,514,000mm^3 = 30.5 Litres
25mm Box = 120x320x340 = 13,056000mm^3 - 13 Litres

Hi Millenium,
I'd be interested to see how you made the fitment to the pannier rails for these boxes! I'm looking at doing the same myself and you've had a stroke of genius there!

I'd be another one interested in understanding the fitment to the rails.

This is brilliant. I've attempted to do something similar with a waterproof camera case.
Really hate the look and weight of OEM back boxes so made this:
