Looking for info/opinions on panniers. Right now I am leaning toward the Jesse Safari's but am also looking at the Odyssey's as well (not so sure I want bags wider than my handlebars at the moment). Also looking at Micatech stuff.

Anyone have any experience with these? Anyone have the Jesse Odyssey bags who wish they had a little bit more room?

Time is also a factor since I would like to get them before the end of August (for Juice's little test flight but primary because I am thinking of riding home to Miami the week before Labor Day) and it seems that EVERYTHING I order for this bike has a 2 week waiting period before I get it (very frustrating for someone who likes to research and make a decision, then have to product immediately following). Preliminary estimates from a little research and calling around indicates I will need to have an order in by next week with whoever I go with to hopefully guarantee I'll have them and be able to install them in time.

Ted and Nick both have the Odyssey's and I haven't heard them complain about them.

Apparently I've already been spoken for. My work here is done.

Have you already ruled out the Touratech panniers?

Not really. From what I have seen they seem to be of smaller capacity than the jesse's. Do you have some data tht will make me reconsider them?

Not really. I really like mine, but I think everyone must make their own choice. I like the look and build of the TT, but I don't think you can go wrong with either the Jesse's or the TT.

What about Happy Trials?
