    alloy box,s for panniers

    I went down to my local Machine Mart to have a nose round,and in the catalog were some alloy cases,when I asked for a look they were not in stock so I haven`t been able to get a good look at them,but they look the right size and shape, I was wondering what you lot thought,
    model No ATC400, order code 070117625.

    i think a decent mounting solutions going to be your biggest problem followed by how quick the fill up with water in the rain

    they do look pretty heavy duty alright, but my fear would be the waterproofness. I don't think mounting them should be too much of a problem if you take a look at how other aluminium panniers are fitted.
