Greetings all, I stumbled across this website and thought it was worth sharing. This is a source for tent pole replacement parts of all sizes/types. You can even build new poles from piece parts which will fit in your panniers !!

Thanks that is really good to know.
It would be nice to have polls to fit in the bags.
I’ve used Kay (and her twin sister Kim) at Quest Outfitters for years for all my outdoor gear fabrics and fittings. Kay is also a motorcycle rider, so she has good thoughts on what material will work for different projects. I’ve made at least 15 full size motorcycle covers using the Sil-nylon fabric, which is virtually waterproof and packs down to smaller than a bread bag. I’ve also made camping tarps, stuff sacks, waterproof tail bags, tank panniers and many other projects with every part obtained through Quest Outfitters. They are great people, and have never let me down.
