Good bag
"Great pannier, increases luggage capacity Be careful when installing the holder as the cables could be blocked by the movement of the handlebars".
Not bad but. . . . . . . . . . . .
"... even with a strong clamp, it tends to rub on the front wheel when it's shaking! I had to add a bungee cord on top. Otherwise clear, sturdy, watertight, practical with vacuum plug."
Good bag
"I used this pannier on a cycling trip over several days. The maximum loading capacity can only be achieved with a wide mountain-bike handlebar. On the road, the capacity will inevitably be reduced by the distance between the gearshifts. Once installed, you can't count on quick access to your belongings, especially if you add a front pannier from the same brand. The air evacuation system makes it easy to compress clothing. Tested in the rain, the bag is sufficiently waterproof, but not completely. Small drops got through. Good value for money nonetheless."
Perfectly suited to mountain biking
"A bag that would have benefited from being narrower and deeper for use with a road bike. Probably better suited to a wide mountain bike handlebar. However, the valve allowing air to be expelled is top-notch!"
Practical product that doesn't interfere with driving
"Handy vacuum bag system. Beware the bag can easily rub the front wheel which makes a hole (less than 1 km of friction)."
Good value for money
"Good quality item. Mounting the fixed part on the bike is a bit tedious and there are hardly any instructions. Don't hesitate to put in all the spacers to avoid compressing the cables too much. Once installed, it seems well moored. However, I haven't ridden with it enough to know if the straps don't loosen with shaking. The bag is a little narrow, but long enough. I was able to fit a small bivouac tent, a mattress and a sleeping bag. Still, it's tight."
