Looking for recommendations for panniers to fit 21 v7 850, trip abroad next year , don’t want to use soft luggage, like the look of c-bow fittings , are they any good? , any for sale ? , Cheers, John
CBow work really well.
Had them on 4 different bikes - the fittings sell on Ebay for about 1/2 new cost so look there.
Btw I have some Royster C-Bow bags for sale - 13 L expandable to 16L with a waterproof inner. Lock to the bike easy to unlock and move. very good condition - look like this Ebay pix Roysters £75 plus postage or pick up
I use c-bow frames, easy to fit and a good range of bags. Currently rocking the x-core hard cases for commuting and touring duties on the Guzzi.

Hi,
If you’re still in the market for a set, it’s worth checking out longride.com. I’ve had a set of their canvas Patriot (silly name) panniers coming up to two years and they’re excellent. I think they look really good, they’re well made, waterproof (so far) and can be locked on the bike if you opt for version that uses a frame.
I even visited their factory in Belgium during a trip to Germany last year and they are a nice, small family run business. I stopped by to pick up some extending straps as the panniers can hold quite a lot, but remain slimline enough not to hamper filtering, which is why I chose these.
I hope this information is useful to you.
Thanks for info , took advantage of new year discount & bought shad sh23 panniers & fitting kit , these plus givi top box i’ve had on a few bikes will be all the space i need , cheers
Hi all, tagging onto this thread for a bit of advice re pannier rack for my 2025 V7 Stone.
Does anyone have either the CBow or Shad P3racks fitted? Im getting conflicting advice from dealer that they are not yet available for 25 model as the fixing points are slightly altered to previous model.
I ordered the Shad 3P set for the 25 Stone model, but they had to go back as Shad mistakenly stated they have a kit that fits, however the supplier, bikeluggage.co.uk who i purchased off stated there is no fitting kit after a call with Shad in Barcelona.
So, any advice on C-Bow fitted to Stone 25 model would be well received before i go buy some. Many thanks
