Dirt bagz panniers, Kreiga 20 litre pack on the Whipps rack, plus a Kriega rucksack.
DIrt bagz come from the USA and have small side frames to stop the panniers flapping about and getting in the wheel, Panniers are not waterproof. Kreiga 20 litre pack is 100% dust and waterproof so good for clothes and straps down tight onto the rack. Whipps alloy rack came from Australia, quality kit, mounts well and is sturdy. Fits with the European sub frame in place that holds the back light and mudguard extension. The alloy XR's only rack needs modifying to fit with the Euro/Aussie spec bikes with the extra sub frame. This sub frame is not there to give extra support for carrying luggage, its for fitting the bigger back light/indicators and mudguard extension. The Kreiga (Kiega) rucksacks are the most comfortable ones i've found for off roading and also have a pocket for a 2.75 litre camel back type drink system
I was very pleased with all of the kit but only used for Morocco not RTW type trip.
