I'm wanting to try a couple S24Os this summer, and I'm heading toward a basket-in-front and saddlebag-in-rear setup. I ordered a Medium Wald basket from Rivendell. Smaller than I expected, but it fits perfectly on a Mark's rack. My guess is that the Medium size is about optimum for a high trail bike, as far as how much stuff I'd want to pack into it before negatively affecting the steering, or running into that "how do I mount my light" question. Is that so?

I have a rear Tubus "Fly" in stainless steel as a rear rack at the moment which I now use with usually a single Ortleib back roller for commuting, but would like to replace that setup with a saddlebag like a Nelson Long Flap or Sackville Large for camping trips, while using the basket to carry the commuting load. Purely a style issue. :) That kind of setup just looks "right" on the Rivs I've seen riding around town.
