A Black Art

John
Rushjob is correct in all that he has said re the fitment position viz a vie the cans and the pannier frames. Re the ground clearance under the back wheel with bike on the centre stand - mines set at 5mm.

Now having taken note of your weight, plus that of dear lady and luggage you will need to adjustr absolutely everything in the rich cocktail of the suspension department to get it absolutely spot on. Now this is indeed a black art. I had angst with my bike until itwas just right - this was done with the help of the guys at my favourite UK dealer and with the help of a guy at OLins in Sweden who sent me a couple of file attachments on the subject. If you U2U me your email address I'll glady sent you the Olin Files.
