They look super on the Hillborne. Good choice and they look big enough without
being too big. They should last many years.

It is not waterproof when it is still brand new.
My stuff got wet during my 2016 TransAm tour since it was brand new when I
started.

Thanks Sean. That’s what I was thinking. I have some Super C Rear bags coming.
Wish the front bags were in between the size they are, and the large. Very nice
looking bags. They would be great for overnight trips and the like.

Hi John,
The outside front pockets can easily fit a wallet. phone, keys. However, I
wouldn't recommend storing those things in such a vulnerable place (low to
the ground, near the wheel, kind of out of line of sight - might miss if
things pop out).
The front panniers are great but the base is
I have the large rear Super C pair, and I run them up front often. The
side pocket is huge, perfect for a camping pad or small sleeping bag

Sean, thanks for the reply.
Q: Since you use the Universal front bags: In your estimation would I be able
to fit a 3-ring binder or a few of them in there? I did not get them because it
looks like they taper down pretty narrow (6” wide by my rough calculation)
at the bottom. And they don’t
Hi John,
I use Super C's on a daily basis and can't "wax" on enough about them (get
it? :) I have both the mini/universal front panniers and the rear (large)
panniers. These bags are bomb proof, look great with wear, and keep the
rain out. I have never had a problem with losing anything out of
To all who helped elucidate me: Thank You!
I struggled with the choice, but in the end ordered a set of Super C Rear
bags from SJS.
Ride with the wind at your backs.

+1. I bought a pair of Super C front panniers from SJS and paid a small fortune
in shipping. Buying from Carradice directly can result in lower shipping costs,
but SJS seem to have lower prices on the same items, so paying the higher
shipping can more economical than buying direct.

They'll last you decades. SJS is a great company. Good products. Good
service. BUT, unless you're willing to pay the shipping you have to keep
yourself to small sized purchases. Shipping prices increase exponentially
with box size.

Thanks for this description and the photos. I use my panniers for shopping,
but there are times when even 2 Ortlieb Rollers are too small; these are 12
liters bigger (does that include the pockets? If not, even bigger) compared
to the 40 l of the Ortliebs. One day ...

Craig, those are gorgeous bags, and you make a strong case for them. I only
wish there were a size between the small fronts (28 liters) and the enormous
rears (54 liters!).
I am usually of a “go bigger, why not?” mindset. But these are really large.
Choices, choices….arrgh! Big or small?

These are the guys I'm sure. Tough as nails. Super C rears are huge. You'll
master the hook thingie up top pretty quickly. You have to position the
bottom (slideable) hook for the specific struts of your rack. I use Nitto
Big Racks front and rear. Then what I do is wrap some cotton handlebar
