With a generous volume of 25.4 liters and a load capacity of 10 kg, the bag offers sufficient space for various utensils. The waterproof material (IPX4) is particularly noteworthy.

The pannier bag for the luggage rack is an extremely versatile product with a wide range of possible uses. In our test, the bag was convincing as a carrier bag, shoulder bag and bike bag. The shoulder strap supplied can be easily attached and removed. With a generous volume of 25.4 liters and a load capacity of 10 kg, the bag offers sufficient storage space for your needs. The reflective logo on the front contributes to increased safety on the road.
The material of the bag is waterproof (IPX4), which we can confirm in our test. Any dirt can be easily removed with a damp cloth. Installation is extremely quick and easy thanks to the Quick-Connect system and the various adapters. All you need is a luggage rack. If the preset distance does not fit, the system can be adjusted to a range between 10.5 and 21 cm using an Allen key.
However, it should be noted that the lower fixing hook may not provide the desired stability and the bag may wobble slightly as a result. This did not bother us in the test. Customers can currently choose from various colors such as dress blues, merlot, red/black, black, storm and forest green.
The pannier for the carrier is therefore a practical and versatile accessory for your bike tours.
