I have the avenir rack top bag. Will my rack top attach on top of these panniers?

Likely, but consider that bag will be above the bike's center of gravity, so better secure contents against side to side motion and or put really light fluffy stuff in there. Ken

Yes. The rack top bag will have a velcro strap at the front which will attach to the rack itself. When the panniers are on the rack, there is a strap handle on the top of the panniers. The bottom straps on the bag can go through the handle to secure it.

Yes. It will take a little more effort, but they can go over rails that thick. However, to do that repeatedly may weaken the clips. I leave the left clipped on and use the right pannier to carry stuff when I'm at work.

You must have a rack that can accommodate paniers. Some will not. Those saying they've used the panniers unsecured is like someone saying they've danced at the edge of a cliff and haven't fallen yet. I don't believe unsecured panniers are by default immune from colliding with the rear wheel. And the product description predictably states: "MTX Pannier Side Frame required for use w/ MTX Beam racks "

Sorry i don't know,i sent mine back because it required a rack that is designed for it. If you buy that bag you are going to NEED the it's rack(IBERA PAKRAK bike rack).

i'm not sure. if you zoom into the picture of the rack and look at the track that the bag mounts on and locks into they must match. also look at the topeak pannier and zoom in on it's picture. you can also find videos of the topeak products working together. you may be able to get an answer from Ortlieb themselves.

This is designed to hook onto the spare. If you remove the spare you would need a different kind of rack. If the top does not hook snugly over the spare then I think it will slide around and maybe fall off.

It depends on what kind of bags you have. Mine have an adjustable hook on a rail, that can be adjusted to hook onto one of the bars of the rack.I have Ortlieb bags, and it works well with them.

Ivy, both of the bikes i have have a horizontial top bar. Given each clamp that hold the bikes are adjustable, I would assume you can make it adjustable. To be on the safe side, I would look for a different style of bike rack to use.Good Luck,E. Daniels

I have used panniers made from small square buckets. You need a rigid "bag" because there is no support for parts of panniers that hang low.

I don't have the panniers, but these are well-designed, so have no fear.I think the Velcro strip on each side is used and a cross Velcro connection between the panniers, too.

Good day, our racks were made to be compatible with most panniers out on the market, pending that they attach to the side rails of a rack. Thank you and have a great day!

These panniers fit on all of my racks, and come with adapters for various sizes of tubing. There should be no need to buy a specific type of rack.

No, they won't fit. They have specific mounting hardware that only matches up with the Ibera rack. There is no alternate mounting arrangement for them. One possibility might be to replace the original rack with the Ibera rack. However, I'm sure there are many other panniers that will work with the Raleigh rack.

The bag is about 12 inches long and attaches to your bike seat pole with a strap and to the rack by means of 2 more straps. The rack trips are about 1 inch wide. They are attached to the bag about 2 inches from bag ends leaving about 6 inches in the middle. I of course don't know how your Panniers attach. The problem I have with the bag is it's hight! It is about 9 inches high. If your set pole isn't up high enough to leave at least 9 inches below the "bottom" of your seat, you will have trouble attaching it to the seat pole. You could forgo that attaching point and set the bag further back on your rack. the problem there is, if your rack isn't very long the bag will be up against your behind!

Honestly, not sure. I bought this along with the Ibera rack, and went with this brand because of the quick release panniers. Have contacted customer service twice (seller, Bikepac), and had both questions/issues answered very promptly. I would ask them about compatibility, sorry I can't answer better than that.

It is a tunnel bag - it is designed to fit OVER the seat. It will likely not work with a rack.

Yes. I have saddle bags on my rack but pannier bungee hooks will attach to this rack.
