Triumph Throw Over Panniers

["Maxhofer, Thomas" <Thomas.Maxhofer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dave,

I also think about buying the Triumph Throw Over Panniers but never have
seen them in "real life" so far.

Have you used them in rain already? Are they 100% waterproof? Even without
the rain covers?
As far as I´m aware the problem with soft panniers is that the rain covers
start to collect the water from the inner side (the side which is facing to
the rear wheel) because the covers are open on this side. Any experiences?

Concerning the capacity: 36 ltrs. each bag or 36 ltrs. total capacity of
both bags?

Thank you!

Thomas

Hope it's of some use.
