Hi, I just placed an order for a Superdelite and I'm starting to plan out my accessories. Currently I have a Priority Current ebike, and on that I use a set of cheap panniers that fit a paper grocery bag each. I'm looking for something similar (although cheap isn't a required criteria), for the Superdelite. However the Superdelite's rack doesn't have the lower attach point that most panniers use to bungy the bottom of the bag to. I know from reading that it has a MIK system, and I see some panniers that can work with that. But all of those so far require you to have a pair installed at the same time. Are there any that allow a single pannier at a time? Since the MIK system is a top mount, maybe there are other types of mounts for the more side mounted loads that are compatible? So little info about the rack/baggage on these bikes...
I plan to get a ~7 L MIK compatible trunk bag that I'll probably keep on the bike when I don't have the panniers installed. For some basic tools, as well as having somewhere to put gloves and a light jacket. I've seen a couple setups that have both the panniers & a trunk bag. While I likely don't need all 3 on most rides, it would be nice to have the option. Is this something that could be done, without having to unscrew the MIK adapter from the trunk bag & panniers to make that swap?
Also, I'd like to get the water bottles that attach without a cage to the front rack's mounting bolts. Almost all the reviews for these bikes show them on there. Is there some special name for these type of water bottles so I can find them online?
For those curious about the config I ordered:
Superdelite Rohloff HS
Silver
GX
Nyon
Fox suspension upgrade
Normal rear carrier
No front rack
Currently I ride 10 mile round trip to pickup groceries, or basic takeout. If I want to go anywhere else more interesting, it's a 20-30 mile round trip. So far I've been doing all riding on the road, or paved trails. However I'm planning to do some light dirt trail riding as there are quite a few large trails within a 20 mile ride from my house.
