Steel Pony Panniers - anyone tried them yet?
Hi all,
I'm considering getting a set of Steel Pony Panniers shipped over from Australia to Europe. Of course shipping this far adds quite a bit to the price but for my next trip I definitely want to go with soft luggage and there does not seem to be anything close to either Andy Strapz or Steel Pony Panniers in the European market.
For my next tour I'll be carrying about 15-20kgs of equipment, most of this in the panniers on a Touratech rack. They should be water and dust proof and hold up to wear and tear and the occasional (low speed) spill on gravel roads.
So before I do indeed order them, has anybody here had any experiences with these panniers? Any other recommendations (Ortliebs are not an option)?
Cheers

P.S.: I have used the search here and elsewhere. Only useful information I did come across so far was a short review on ADVRider.com
P.P.S.: As for Andy Strapz vs. Steel Pony: It seems the Steel Pony set cures a couple of issues people had with Andy Strapz, e.g. them beeing not really water/dust proof.
