If you come across the lower mounting bracket per the MPH I would like to borrow to have it recast in Asia where I live part time. I can than give you first born, and make them available AT MY COST. I have a few pair of the under the seat brackets for a fiver each if you need them

dashow, i am on the hunt for all these pieces. It would appear that a B20 with an alloy nipple of the right dimension simply epoxied on would give a pattern for casting, but just my guess right now. I am considering a B20 with a machined FT111 (rear seat stay) or FF57 might be a good choice as well. The OEM casting would be best however. I will PM on the brackets , thanks

Hello PanFans, I have recieved great info from Vincent riders desiring these panniers. One item I would like more info about is the alloy channel used for the lid. I have all the MPH articles, but the alloy channel exact size and configuration is not addressed. Have I missed something? Does anyone own a set of these early bags that can give us more detail?
Cheers
Craig
