I just purchased a 2022 Specialized Turbo Vado 4.0 to replace my 2019 Turbo Vado 3.0. The 19 Vado has the Racktime rack and have a Racktime bag that mounted to that rack. I just purchased The Basil adapter plate and it replaced the Racktime mounting plate and now works perfectly. I had to just barely enlarge the holes in my Racktime bag by simply sliding a #2 screwdriver shaft through the holes and then the holes lined up fine. A lot cheaper than having to buy another bag. Just thought you might be interested. Thanks. Joedog.

so you put the basil adapter on the rack or changed the adapter on the bag itself?
I am considering upgrading from my SL 4.0 EQ (Racktime) to the SL2 6.0 EQ (MIK HD) but would hate to have to buy new bags because of the different rack system
 
You can make a Racktime to MIK adapter using these MIK and Racktime adapter plates:

I did it with my Bontrager bags. Check out post #7 in this thread:

I guess the easiest is to buy a MIK adapter plate and fit in under the old Racktime bag. This post claims that the hole pattern is the same, which is of course the prerequisite. Would not like to have to drill extra holes for it in these bags
