Front pannier fitting

    I’ve fitted Blackburn Custom Lowrider front pannier racks to my Cube SL Road Pro.
    The forks have only one eyelet on the mid-fork outer side so there are two fixing points - the mid-fork eyelet using the spacer between the rack bars and to the fork dropout eyelet with a clip around the diagonal bar (wrapped in insulation tape for friction).

    I used Ortlieb Back Roller City panniers on the racks today but was concerned about how secure the fitting is. The bolt used in the mid-fork is an M5 with thread lock applied. I’m also going to diagonally affix two cable ties as a fail safe.

    Thoughts?

    Tried to attach pics from iPhone but wouldn't work.

    You'll be ok as long as you don't over load the bags.

    Most front pannier racks are fixed at two points.
