I may be doing a short tour (few days) and want to be able to carry luggage, wondered if anyone has recommendations on a rack/pannier set up for a road bike that has no fittings for such practicalities?
I've seen ones that have an extra long skewer and attach with the rear wheel, beam ones, various seatpost attachments, bodging with p-clips. Any best option?
Also, with my tiny 49cm frame, am I going to be hitting panniers with my heels? Should I look at something like a Carradice Longflap instead? Plan to travel very light so it may well be big enough.
