How to mount panniers to rack
I've found plenty of info out there on DIY racks and panniers but little on how to attach them. I've got a tube steel rack and some army ammo boxes (steel).
I've seen mounting 'systems' that look like a hinge with a pin presumably another hinge slots into and a disc (I think with a pin or similar) that rotates to lock in place.
Are there generic names for these or brand names so I can look them up.
What are the pros/cons of the systems?
edit: Almost forgot, is there any practical reason for mounting the boxes slightly dipping down at the front versus horizontally?
