Introduction

Hi to all, I've been reading the threads on this forum for a while and finally decided to join to offer advice as well as receive it from what is a really useful group. For my first post I'd like to show some pics of my pannier set up on my Giant Quick e+, as this seems to be a big problem amongst owners. I had to resort to this solution as the Metro e rack isn't available anywhere in the UK, same goes for the Mlk top deck rack addition. I also swapped out the cheap and nasty grips and uncomfortable saddle.

Nice photos, thanks.

Hi Johnno! Welcome! Are they no longer manufacturing them or are they out of stock? That's a great solution in the meantime. How's it working out?

The racks are still being made I believe as they are still a fairly new product, its just the supply chain is very slow. The Giant city panniers I have fitted work well enough and give ample clearance for pedalling, the one downside is that they aren't easily removed. Also they are showerproof not waterproof, I have cycled in the rain though and they perform really well.

Hello and Welcome

'
I bought the MIK deck. You might be able to order one from the Giant US site. The stock rack is so much nicer with the deck than without.

Hi Gator, thanks for the advice, unfortunately they don't ship to the UK. Taking a closer look at the deck set up I don't think it will fit my model anyway. I need the Rack it Metro e rack.
