That's mostly because I want to keep any extra/weight stress off the drive side of the wheel.

Quite possible that it would have had more catastrophic consequences on the drive side.Hobbes vs Boylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03745006035218212607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2296519100163016898.post-50588212184205384542012-09-21T11:09:38.238-07:002012-09-21T11:09:38.238-07:00Not a big thing for sure, but it always seemed to ...Not a big thing for sure, but it always seemed to me that with the moving parts on the right side, I'd put the pannier on the left in case something fell out. Maybe it's because I had a cord get wrapped about a cassette once.GeekGuyAndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16295251258659270861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2296519100163016898.post-28105764217543709262012-09-21T11:06:10.471-07:002012-09-21T11:06:10.471-07:00Pannier on non-drive side is a thing?

Personally, I'm randomly switching sides every once in a while in order to achieve even wear on panniers and rack.

At least you didn't seem to find too many knees-in-chest riders.<br /><br />I also noticed the two pannier users had it on the drive side. I'm not really sure why this matters to me, but it always seemed wrong to put a lone pannier on the drive side.GeekGuyAndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16295251258659270861noreply@blogger.com
