Right, understood. I am going on the assumption that since they are of similar capacity they are likely to have a similar fit. I'll get them from someplace where I can return them if they don't fit. Thanks!

Stefan, thank you so much for testing this out! I think I will go ahead and get the Ortlieb back roller bags since they are the right size for my needs.

Thanks ronaan. I've looked at the Racktime bags but I would like to get something larger than what they offer for a 7-8 day tour.

Stefan, yes I agree that getting your bike fitted is not for everyone and it sounds like you were able to do a great job on your own! You have to do what works best for you!

PedalUma, I am coming from 15 years of riding short wheelbase high racer recumbents exclusively so I need to relearn how to ride a diamond frame bike. The fitter was pleased and commented that I will have fewer bad habits to break! The geometry of recumbents is very different and employs...

BEC111, there were a couple of factors that led me to get a professional fitting. First, my LBS offered me a $50 discount off the $150 price for the fitting. In addition, they offered a 20% discount off of any parts that I purchased during the process. Finally, I decided that it made no sense to...

I want to introduce myself and thank the many forum members that provided me with timely reviews and information to assist in my recent purchase. Last week I took delivery of a new Specialized Turbo Vado SL 5.0 EQ. This is my first eBike and I am still getting accustomed to it, but overall, I...
