After waiting just over a month I finally got my Holan's panniers. The boxes are awesome, only flaw I noticed was a small wrinkle in the powder coat. The racks on the other hand. look good but don't fit worth a damn. The left side, 2 of the 3 points line up. The right rack is really bad. If I put the bolt in at the foot peg, the top points are no where near aligned, if I try to loosely install the top two bolts the holes are misaligned by a few millimeters. and the lower point is now on the opposite side of where it needs to be, roughly 12mm from where it should be. It's also too far back,the slot is no longer aligned with the mounting hole.

I have the ability to properly fix all the fitment problems. so I don't plan on trying to have Holan fix this. I'll post more pictures and at better quality in a day or two when I have more time.

Re: Holan pannier racks, no bueno!

Just an observation, did you order the correct rack, did they send the correct racks? Only mention this as the 2014 ES version is slightly different to the 2012 models on the mounting points...........

Since you plan on fixing it anyway... but did you confirm the shipping invoice and the actual part numbers are correct? LOL, the packaging may not even have the numbers on them anyway. ::010::

As I found out with my QR H&B racks....they didn't line up at the footpeg mount point ::)

yup, everything matched what I ordered. the parts do not have part numbers on them.
