that is very interesting. do you have a photo you can put up somewheres we can all see it?? i can't imagine no rack required for a bag that holds that much heavy stuff. i am curious to see it. grazie, -dw

As a long distance touring cyclist my preference has always been to mount the rear brake towards the front of the bike. I have found this arrangement brings consistant modulation with the front brake. Most importantly the brake is out of the way of my homemade tubular shaped pannier that attaches to the rear seat stays. This pannier is shaped like an upside down "v" and has enough volume to contain my both sleeping bag and tent. BTW no rack is required....
