Been there, toured with BOB

On: 2008-06-17

Ive put on thousands of bicycle touring miles using both panniers and two versions of the BOB trailer. The BOB tracks very well and, with its low center of gravity, barely affects bike handling. Ive used both the BOB Yak and the Ibex and found that the Ibex lives up to its press reviews. I routinely tour with 50-60 pounds of gear and the BOB trailer handles the load yet allows me to feel like a cyclist rather than a Beast Of Burden (BOB). My one caveat is about the drysack. I dont like the location of the buckles while in use (they are underneath the bag). While it keeps gear dry, it really needs to be redesigned to allow easier access. Kickstand is a great addition along with bottle mounts for 4 bottles.
