You went full cargo, man! Never go full cargo! - A Lectric designer on where to put the panniers when the orbitor was installed, or Robert Downey Jr, possibly.

Ever notice that the Lectric Xpedition panniers sell for like $65 more than the ones for the Abound that are the same size, but don't come with a quick disconnect solution? Or that the bags can't open well with the Orbitor installed? Yeah its less than ideal in my opinion. If someone asks, yes, the Aventon Abound bags do fit on the Xpedition, its hard to mess up velcro, but they interfere with the Orbitor, the same way the bags from Lectric do (or so i've heard).

This set of parts fixes the above problems by offset mounting the bags. They are compatible with the quick disconnects that Aventon uses, so in a matter of seconds (and one velcro strap if you feel so inclined to use it), you can remove or install the bags. It offsets the bags just enough that you can open the tops in spite of the orbitor being in place (no testing on the cargo box yet).

Printing:
This is a functional print doing functional things in real-world environments. All my prints have been ABS, and the only failures i've had on predicessor parts were along layer lines, so materials with good layer adhesion are best (petg?). WHATEVER YOU DO, don't use ABS+/abs Ultra, its pretty at the cost of layer strength so failures are inevitable. I printed in .6mm nozzle and 2.4mm or 3mm wall thickness on an Ender 5 plus, but these parts can be printed on a much smaller machine.

Installing the mounts:
You will need:
-m6x18 or smaller screw
-zip ties
-(optional) 3/8x2.5" bolt and lock nut
You may have noticed there's a captive hex head in the peg. That's for an optional bolt. In practice, i've had one failure of that peg, and that was when the bag snagged on a bike rack, but its there if you want to be safe.
To install on a bike, grab the front left and right (labeled) mounts. Press them on over the forward left and forward right bolt holes for the YEPP mount on the underside of the top rail. then press on until the clips engage the rail. Then move the mounts until the bolt holes engage the threaded inserts for the YEPP seat. At that point insert and tighten the m6 bolts until they are snug (but not tight). these provide rotational stability. There is a slot near the arm for the peg with a channel. Insert a zip tie into this and tighten. Do the same for the rear mounts. all 4 pegs should have the hex shaped hole facing the rear of the bike

Installation of the panniers:
Use the plastic clips on the Aventon panniers to quick-clip to the mounts. Place the bags so the aventon logo faces back, and optionally, use the one horizontal velcro to tie to attach the bag to the frame to prevent swinging. repeat steps backwards if you want to remove.

After installation:
Go forth and do cargo bike things. Message me if you have failures, or want to sell commercially for some reason, or have ideas for something else for me to design for the Xpedition.

yes, i'm aware my front right mount is cracked in the second picture, it's held for the last four months and four hundred miles, so i'm not concerned.
