The bag has a generous capacity of 20 litres as well as practical functions such as large reflectors and switchable LED lighting, which ensure greater visibility in traffic. The Quick-Connect fastening enables quick attachment to conventional luggage carriers, making everyday life much easier. The bag can also be used flexibly thanks to the handle and padded shoulder strap. Another advantage is the splash protection in accordance with the IPX4 standard, which protects the bag from moisture.

As part of our practical test of the ELONEO pannier with LED light , we thoroughly scrutinised the manufacturer’s advertising claims. The attachment to the pannier rack is extremely reliable. The bag sits firmly and securely without any movement or loosening. This is particularly important for safety while riding.
The integrated LED light also fulfils expectations. The LED light is clearly visible from a distance of 20 metres and from all angles, which significantly increases safety in road traffic. Furthermore, no visible moisture was detected on the paper towels during the waterproofness test, which indicates that the bag guarantees protection against moisture.
The capacity of the bag is remarkable. It offers enough space for all the items used in the test and even has additional storage space for other utensils. The weight of the bag is between 800 and 900 grams, which allows for comfortable handling when cycling. Overall, it can be confirmed that ELONEO fulfils its self-imposed promises of quality and functionality.

At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation
Prices of up to €55.49 are charged on the internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as € 29.99 . With a price of € 29.99, the ELONEO pannier is therefore currently in the lower price segment. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
