Ditto. I was looking at the Teton bags, but didn't see an option for rain covers for them either. I'm guessing these are about as waterproof as the Tetons?

I have ordered these new panniers from Winding roads.co.uk
Martin, the boss, provides the best customer service ever.
I'm glad you have built these panniers. They are just perfect for solo adventure travel

Hi guys,

You are correct, they are NOT 100% waterproof and contents will need to be in waterproof stuff sacks or bags of some sort. Thanks for the questions and interest

If that's the case, are waterproof covers available for these (and the Tetons - they appear to be about the same size)?

We will be making a waterproof liner for these instead of a cover. The reason is if you decide to attach anything else to the bag a cover would have to be able to go over that, which then makes the cover not function as well in either case. We are not sure exactly when they will be ready...stay tuned.

i will put my stuff in waterproof sacks. I don't like covers. I am always worried they fly off

I see you have the The Monarch Pass Saddle Bags mounted on a Honda CRF 250 L. Do you plan on offering the side racks for the 250? I don't see them listed on your web site.
Thanks

Yes we do!!!! They are being finished as we speak and will hopefully be ready mid March

Hi there,
Is there any additional hardware required to mount these on Happy Trails SU racks? Also, I hate to be vain, but are there any colours other than black available? My bike is black, my gear is black, and my top box is also black so I was thinking yellow would be a nice step away from the. theme.
Cheers, Steve

Been looking at these (and the Expedition Saddle Bags) a little more closely, and got to wondering - Is the seat strap really neccessary? Is it a weight-distribution thing (especially considering that the Wolfman Pelican box / hard pannier mounting kit seems to simply holds to the rack)? Will they hold securely to the rack without the seat strap in place?

the Seat Straps are absolutely necessary as they carry about 70% of the weight. The side straps that attach the bags to the side racks carry about 30% and are used to stabilize the load and compess so the bags are as one unit.

Woof,
