 If you plan to use this pannier with a carrier rack, the Tubus Cosmos in stainless-steel construction, weighing in 680 grams  (24 oz) is the expedition rack for long hauls, or long-lasting performance. The Tubus Cosmos is wider than previous models and has a load capacity of 30kg/66lbs. If you are looking for that feather-light carrier rack, you should consider the new ultralight Tubus Carry at 385 grams (in titanium) with a load capacity of 30kg/66 lbs. For world touring, it's recommended to use stainless steel or chromoly steel which can be repaired in case of an accident/breakdown. I have ordered the Tubus Cosmos and will be fitting it to my MTB. I'll feature some reviews when the assembly is complete, and instructions on how to install (modify) for use on mountain bikes. In communications with a reputable dealer and friend (see earlier posts and will be used on my Arctic2Argentina Expedition in 2012), the Tubus Cosmos is highly regarded as an industry carrier component for bicycle touring and long-distance expeditions. Tubus Swing is the ideal front rack for a MTB expedition build to support from panniers.
