best bike bag ever

I bought my pannier/ backpack about 2 years ago, and absolutely love it. I commute 3 miles to work several times each week, year round. The bag holds exactly the right amount of stuff (phone/ wallet + laptop, notebook, cords, with some room for clothes), keeps everything dry, and the conversion process is easy and simple. I never write reviews for products, but love this bag so much I'm motivated to let the world know! Very well designed, and constructed.

You can stop looking

I bought this pannier a year ago as a birthday gift for myself, and have used it every day since. Every. Day.
I don't drive, I strictly bike everywhere, and this pannier is the first to be able to keep up for so long. I have put it through everything, from rain, snow, sleet, to mud, and it took it all and still works like new! It gets used as an everyday work bag, groceries, day pack, and everything in between. I used it on several tours, and I am certainly not known to take great care of my stuff, so I got used to having to replace panniers each fall, but this one I can barely notice any wear. It truly lives up to the hype, and you can stop looking for a better pannier, because as far as I can tell, this is as good as it gets.

Fantastic pannier/backpack! Easily converts from one to another. As it happens today was the first day I used it and got caught in a downpour. The pack itself was water resistant and I made sure to stop and put on the accompanying rain guard - worked great. It’s compact (I got the 22l) but holds a lot of stuff. Lots of pockets for organization, and the bottle holders on the sides work well too. Upon first use, very pleased with my purchase.

Commuter, everyday, & weekend backpack pannier

This pannier is ideal for commuting to work, utilitarian (e. g., grocery shopping) errands, and even a weekend bike tour.

It is well made; the backpack straps hide away nicely; the upper rack attachments don't cut into my upper back; it is water resistant & a rain cover is included. The description of the 22L Pannier Backpack Convertible 2.0 Lite is accurate.

If I still worked (I'm retired but do lots of bicycle advocacy stuff) I'd use this pannier every day.

Amazing Harvey! Thanks for taking the time to leave your review! Great to hear that excellent feedback from such a an experienced cyclist! We are happy to have you riding with us! All the best!

Spacious!! Versatile!!! I little awkward for 5'5" people when wearing as a backpack but you get used to us.

Thanks for the feedback Elisa! Hopefully you can adjust those straps a bit and get it working great for you! All the best!
