This is a reverse engineering of a product by www.pannierhooks.com, given I don't live in the USA this would have been quite costly to get it imported and an unpleasant experience overall,

I have used this with PLA+ and it has been very strong, a single hook could hold 15kg of weight easily, PETG is recommended as the Hook needs to be a bit more flexible to snap onto the pannier rail easily but it still can be done with a PLA printed one.

Since printing I have reversed the bolt and nut arrangement, this is so when the bolt sticks out from the nut, it doesn't mar your clothing.

Now I haven't printed the new version yet, as the original was good enough albeit its flaw.

you will need,

-part 1.stl x2 printed on its side - may require supports for the hex nut slot

-part 2.stl x2 printed on flattest side down

-M5x20 x 2 - I used a round head with a hex pattern

-M5 nut x 2

The design is for you to drill holes into your bag strap and sandwich them in-between part 1 and 2, so part 1 is on the outwards facing side and the slot for the pannier rail faces down

If you need more instructions please look at the website where this design comes from, support them if you like the product

Notes:

Now I am not not too sure how much infill to use as its been many months since I printed this, if you use PETG I believe you can even go upto 100% if you are paranoid of your bag falling off while you ride, I might have done 40% with PLA+, but I can't remember
