Axiom Oddysee Rack & Ortlieb Roller Plus Panniers for Bad Boy 8

One of the requirements for the Cannondale Bad Boy 8 Commuting bike is that I must be able to carry the kids project work or  'extra' items to school - this avoids the excuse of taking the car when we are due to cycle together. It does happen every other week so i really had to find a solution.

I bought the Axiom Oddysee Disc rear rack from Chainreactioncycles and set about fitting it today. The fitting was much easier than i thought and had it mounted in around 30 minutes or so. I have also managed to find a way to mount it so that its only a 2 minute job to remove or add on. 4 quick 4m key turns and its off/on.

The rack does not double as a mudguard so i have added the SKS one from my F1 MTB.

I had already bought the Ortlieb Roller Plus panniers for my wife's bike last month so i will get the use of them for now.
