Hello,

Does anyone recognise this logo on my pannier?
http://www.flickr.co...N00/4953733328/

I bought them from a bike shop in London, about 10-11 years ago but haven't seen the brand recently anywhere and there's no name on them, just this logo. I need to order a part of the attachment mechanism, so have been trying everywhere to identify the manufacturer.

Thanks!

    There's a bit missing from your link. If you edit the post to include the full address, it'll make it easier to help :wink:

    Hmmm. Not seen that one before, I'm afraid. Quite distinctive though. Is the bike shop in question still around?

  • That would be Treks' old logo from the late 1980's through mid-90's or so.
  • Thanks Cranky, that was it. I've now been in touch with Trek, but unfortunately they don't have any spare parts for these panniers, so my next post will be about where I can find the right sized spring to keep this one from falling off.

    Thanks!
  • Springs are easy enough to find on the internet. You basically just need to know inner/outer diameter and length. You could also replace the spring with a quick release strap or use the mounting system that Ortlieb and others use since spares are usually available. http://www.ortlieb.co.uk/index.php?cNam ... 1ogc3ocuf4
