... with stock forks, that is. What do y'all consider too much in lowrider panniers?
I'm still experiementing, and yes, rear weight is better (for me), but t'other day I rode home with almost 20 lb in the front Sports Packers -- 20+ lb in one, 18+ lb in the other. Handling was certainly different -- the bike didn't want to turn, but once I got used to leaning more and "turning" less, it felt OK. I daresay 10 lb/side is the max, and I daresay too that the bike would feel better with another 20+ lb in the rear at the same time, but for now that is my theoretical maximum. I recall perversely putting 2 gallons of water *per side* in lowriders on the Sam Hill. Now that was a straight ahead only feeling! -- Resumes, LinkedIn profiles, bios, and letters that get interviews. By-the-hour resume and LinkedIn coaching.
