Al Jesse Luggage
I have decided to buy some new panniers for my BMW R1150GS. After much scouring of the web I sort-of-settled on the ones made in US by Al Jesse (I'm in UK incidentally). From the website ( http://www.jesseluggage.com) they appear sturdy, capacious, and yet narrower than either the standard BMW items or equivalent capacity "boxes" from e.g. Touratech. They look good too. And another major plus is that, unlike all other makes (except BMW), the Jesse mountings are unobtrusive when the panniers are not fitted too. So they are my favourites - even though they are very expensive.
The bad news is that I have now emailed Jesse luggage (mailto:luggage@goodnet.com) three times over the last month and have not even received an acknowledgement, let alone a reply to my questions. This does not exactly encourage me to part with a large amount of money over the internet.
I'd like to buy something soon but if what I am seeing by way of pre-sales service is anything to judge by I'd rather keep well away from post-sales. So, does anybody have any experience of either the company or its products that they can share with me?
Regards,
Andy
