Someone was asking about panniers for the rack on the Vado SL EQ. I have been using Vaude panniers which have very flexible options for securing them at the top and lower down. The top clips latch on securely and delatch when the handle is pulled. The lower arm can be moved to any position within the roughly oval-shaped track and rotated to any angle.
I used these panniers, on a different bike, for a 5-week hotel-based cycle tour in 2019 with them loaded to about 12 kg. I wouldn’t hesitate to carry these panniers similarly loaded on the Vado’s Racktime rack, even though it is more lightly constructed than a typical touring rack. I purchased the panniers online from Germany.
