Whoever came up with the name "One Eyed Rabbit Steel Plate" has a great imagination. ❤️👍

I Love this idea.

Brilliant! I've been using discarded cans as rucksack liners for years. I've been looking at plastic panniers for a few months now for an upcoming trip. I'm going to build some of these!

Your a genius sir! Recycled cost effective,durable, and water proof material.

Have you been in touch with Shifter, who covers bike commuting? This seems like it has great potential, especially considering weight and waterproofing.

Thanks for the tip :) We have been in touch, and looking forward to working together.

Thank you for sharing.❤

That’s pretty slick. The cans would be perfect targets for sticker-bombing. One thing concerned me. The quick release… if it vibrates loose, does it interfere with the spokes? That could be bad.

@rackhackers

Valid question :) We ordered a very short quick release lever model, to avoid any kind of contact with the spokes. It had to be specifically produced for the order, but it was worth it for the comfort of not having to avoid the spokes when we open and close the lever. Other than that, the elastomer added to the quick release will probably prevent it from opening spontaneously.

That's such a genius and sensible design - definitely going to check out your website and try this for myself.

Ingenious design!

Awesome video!

This is absolutely brilliant!

Wow thanks so much for sharing this idea and making it accessible

Genius Design Man!!

great innovation!

Absolutely genius. Thank you for sharing this wonderful idea!

Super hack-super pack! Keep rolling, boys! Thanks so much.

Great idea! Thanks for sharing it - it's a great way to recycle and have a multifunctional pannier!

Real use i love it thank you

Very very handy that I'll try that

Brilliant!

Amazing!!!

Fantastic 👍👍😁😁

PROFI, köszönöm szépen!

Try a draw type potato peeler to remove plastic burr. Very good!

Thanks! Good tip for those making them for personal use. As we cut many canisters, we got a pen style deburr tool. It leaves the edge rounded, and quite fast to follow the curve with. i.etsystatic.com/28770019/r/il/775aca/3856970040/il_794xN.3856970040_6jep.jpg

Nice video! Could be used for washing too I guess

Use O rings between the washers to prevent water intrusion.

We thought about it, but the HDPE plastic is soft enough to deform slightly around the washers, and seal by itself. At some of the points, the surface needs to be worked as described in the tutorials.

Or silicone caulk as used around a bath. 😉👍

Good idea, seems like a good place to start a DIY project. Problem I see is if pennier carry heavy weight. Will the hardware rip the plastic can? Also the plastic can seem wasteful only used 1.25. Maybe we need to think harder how to utilized waste material as part of pannier reinforcement.

Thanks for the ideas. Plastic cans are made of surprisingly strong material, but for the people who don't trust it, we have a super heavy duty setup for whoever doesn't mind the extra weight. We will add an article about that in the tutorial section on the website soon. The remaining material can be used to create compartments inside the pannier if you like, but, unfortunately, adding more of the same plastic around the hooks does not make it any stronger.

Excelenta idee! O singura intrebare:daca mergi pe drumuri accidentate nu se deschide clapa inferioara? Cred ca ar ajunge la spite...

Nu se deschide, e foarte usoara si ii sub presiune. E un model scurt de maner care nu ajunge la spite.

Those marathon plus tyres are terrible for the wet. I had so many falls with them

Hello. Great tutorial. I see that the hardware is designed for containers from 10l to 35l. To get an idea for scale, could you please share the size of the blue containers you used in the tutorial? I am guessing 20l? It seems like the white panniers at kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z4yV27GRnKvAZsY.htmlsi=2cFaULTaVdw2WDhw&t=67 are bigger. Maybe these are the 30l or 35l?

Hi there. The blue one is 25l. The white one at the beginning of the video is 20l.

Professional! What is the volume of a single plastic can?

@rackhackers

6 ай бұрын

The Cannier set fits plastic cans with volume from 10l to 35l. You can choose your plastic can depending on the volume you need.

This is brilliant idea but I now find these cans are hard to find. I planned on building a houseboat using these as floatation.

Have you tried asking at businesses that use liquid products in larger quantities, like carwashes, industrial laundries, hotels or agricultural producers? They use these cans because it is the most convenient way for handling liquids. The best is probably to go directly to recycling centers that serve these businesses.

​@@rackhackers You have to be extra extra careful when using discarded plastic containers, and be completely sure that they were not originally used as containers for toxic chemicals or agrochemical products. Storing your clothes or food in a container that contained Roundup or some other pesticide doesn't sound very healthy. that said, the mounting solution and the handle setup you find look amazing, congratulations
