I've had shimmy on a bike with rear panniers and handlebar bag, a different bike with different rear panniers and different handlebar bag, a third bike with different front and rear panniers and the same (#2) handlebar bag, and the same bike with that handlebar bag and pulling a B.O.B. trailer. The trailer setup shimmied least but was still detectable. I'd like to find a tourer that will not shimmy.
