One thing I did to make it a little more secure was to replace the bottom hooks with carabiners (tip I saw on bikeforums somewhere). I didn't use them with the hook, so I can't say if it's better or worse this way.barlowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897924793754518228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8418702487733730650.post-33612155205218450592008-01-14T11:11:00.000-06:002008-01-14T11:11:00.000-06:00I had a small set of Performance ones.

It seems like in the cold I really have to pay attention to keeping my cadence up. Here's to hoping you heal up.<BR/><BR/>On the panniers front, I picked up a set of cheapos from Performance in their bargain bin, $35 for both. They're small, but I figured I'd start out cheap to figure out what I really want them to do before I get any good ones.barlowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897924793754518228noreply@blogger.com
