Could anyone point me in the direction of aftermarket semi decent leather panniers & tool roll. I am having my bike repaired soon!
Thanks in advance

Hey Rod What type of thing you looking for? Square, sloped, ridged, floppy, studded, tassels? I got of eBay plain slopped for £26.00 new! I’ve seen these in Bournemouth a bit of a ride for you! http://www.philsmall.co.uk/index2.html
Just ride the dam bike!

There is another option...... The Saddlemen Drifter- jumbo looks great on the bike. I got mine from www.accessoryinternational.com in Miami. As the pound is so strong, they cost about £75 plus about £20 for shipping. They advertise 6-8 weeks for delivery. Mine came in 11 days (I didn't even have time to warm my wife, BIG TROUBLE!!!) also...the easy brackets work great on them. If you wan to see what they look like on the bike, pm me and I'll send a photo.
