If you google “seat post rack pannier” you’ll come up with some examples that will work for small panniers and are rated around #25lbs

For some excellent insight on the ultra-light off-road version, check out bikepacking.net. They have an entire section devoted to personal setups and gear lists and a growing archive of gear review. Good travel reports, too.

Keep up the good work.
