Panniers - a necessary evil for some. However, I am noticing an increasing amount of overloading with the consequence that there is an audible rubbing. The rubbing, it is assumed, is between the overloaded pannier(s) and the side of the tyre. I remember I used to have this problem but found a remedy in the form of a bungee. Hook the bungee on the bottom edge on side and attach to the frame and if in the case of two panniers, run the bungee from one bottom edge , across the to the other bottom edge. This should enable the pannier(s) to move off from the wheel and stop the rubbing. Any other ideas?
