Hi! 

Does anyone know of any makers who could make a custom pannier using Ortlieb hardware? I love the Ortlieb latch system but I would like to try a different pannier.

Thanks!

Michael

I would reach out to Andy at Lord's Luggage. He makes great stuff, and a Riv enthusiast. I spoke with him about this very subject about a year ago.

Michael: Please do post photos and descriptions of your Ortleib-hardware customs as-and-when.

Lord's: Reasonable prices until you come to the musette: why is this $120? Even the Large Grabsack is only $113, and having owned a first-edition those are far, far more than musettes. (RH musettes and Chuck Harris's cute Velo Retro stock designs and customs are only $25, at least at last purchase.)

Hi,

Thanks for the responses. Andy at Lord's Luggage says he doesn't make panniers. Any other suggestions? I'll keep asking around, or I might just have to get a tattered Ortlieb and modify it to suit my needs.

Thanks!

Michael
