Default stealth rack/touring luggage

Looking at buying the 105 anniversary touring luggage set. I'm wondering how it will fit with my stealth rack, the bag will overhang the lids by a few inches and be only a few inches above. Any one experienced this? any issues with opening the lids with this type of clearance using the stealth rack? Thanks

As long as the bag is above the lids you shouldn't have any problem. The stealth rack does sit kinda low andsome loaded bags will sag wherethey hang over the rack. I usea Rally Pac bag on my stealth rack and it works fine, but it does not reach over the hardbags. I plan on upgrading to larger/nicer/easier to fasten to the bike tour luggage soon. That may be something I need to watch for.

I have the same setup but use the bag on my seat as a backrest. If you are worried about sagging while on the rack just make a support to sitinside the bottom of the bag like a piece of masonite or plastic.
