Pannier Slippage

08-31-2004, 12:50 PM

I'm a newbie bike commuter. I ride lots, but this is the first time I've
ever tried to commute. I got a rack and a pannier for my old hardtail
MTB. The rack is by Trek, I think, and the Pannier is Delta. When the
pannier is far enough back on the rack, it works great. The problem is
that the pannier tends to slide forward on the racks's rails to where it
interferes with my pedaling (i.e. negative heel-to-pannier clearance).

So my question is: how do people keep their pannier from sliding too far
forward? I'm hoping someone else has worked out a good solution to this
problem so I can take advantage of it without having to work something
out for myself.

Thanks,
