Hi everyone! I was looking to add a bit more storage space to my rig when I realized that these US Army surplus sustainment pouches work really well as panniers. They already have a cinch top and tightening strap, and with their intended purpose being hauling heavy gear, they have a pretty hefty weight capacity. To give them a proper pannier shape I cut a piece of plastic and bent it into an L-shape. They worked really well on an overnighter, and for $15 plus $4 in plastic it's probably one of the cheapest ways to add 16L of storage to a bike.
