Panniers at last.

After better than a year of looking I managed to find a set of panniers and the frame. They were on Ebay. I have lost several auctions for panniers. I have tried to get just the frames or just the panniers in the past but never secured the goods. The set I won is as good as one can get second hand. The panniers are perfect. The frame is in need of a good polishing with Autosol which should restore the chrome plating. The set is by Krauser and fit the bike perfectly. The frames even have the rubber anti-vibration pads. The frame is also the solid frame that includes the built in rack rather than the version that has the rack as a bolt-on extra. The one piece is much stronger. They even came witha full set of keys. So a major result.
