Question about Homage 5 and Ortlieb e-trunk bag

Hi there everyone
We have just taken delivery of a new Homage 5 bike.
Does anyone know if the Ortlieb etrunk bag will fit on the rear rack? If so, will it fit with the Backroller panniers that we have? I have tried to ask both Ortlieb and R&M and neither knew.
Do I have to be the one who finds out by ordering (online) and discovering it doesn't? And then returning it... No one sells it anywhere near us.

Cheers

Ellie
 

Same trunk bag, RM Nevo. That said, no guarantee the rack is the same. In fact, it is not, if you have the "co-sprung" rack option (I'm assuming you did not select the minimalist option).

I believe your rack is the MIK HD. HD usually means 'heavy duty,' which, in my experience means oversized tube diameters. I would confirm with RM that your rack is the MIK HD, then check again with Ortlieb for both the trunk bag/panniers. Then, update this post.

Thank you for that added info. It is the MIK HD, you're right.
It's a 16ml tube. The clips from the panniers clip onto it easily.
I think I will take a chance and just order it and send it back if it doesn't fit. It's free shipping to send to me, not return shipping, though.
