But i heard the low suspension was only available with esa.

There was a lot of contradictory information earlier in this thread about this topic. Historically the low suspension was never available with ESA...some sources said the new GS would have it and some said no and as I recall there was no firm determination in this thread one way or the other.

Go to Touratech website, somewhere there are pictures of WC GS with panniers that you interested in installed. The CEO/Founder of Tourtech went on a tour and posted picture. Do a little search and you shall have that info.

Posting through iPhone so can't do much of a multitasking. Can be do e but take awful long time.

Yes like half a kilo. Not "slightly" in my book.
(as wheel weight - not compared to bike total weight... there the better weight reduction would be for the RIDER HIMSELF to go on a diet)

I own spoke wheels btw...

I've seen all the pictures with the panniers fitted, but want to see some pictures of the whole bike with just the rails

Thanks bud, I've seen that one.

Touratech will be at the bike show in London next week, so as a last resort, I guess I could go and have a look, in the flesh

Those prices are higher from what I know. Your prices are MSRP + Dealer profit.
