Ortlieb back Roller classic panniers

[ceepeebee]

saw these for the aforementioned 63 quid from Wiggle yesterday, went to buy them today....up to 84 quid and they've got way less stock and no orange ones. I snoozed, I loosed

I bought some grey ones from Wiggle a couple of days ago along with a rack. No stock until mid Jan so I'm still with the rucksack for a few weeks. I nearly didn't buy them because of that. One of the few times an impulse buy might have paid off...

Today I passed a cyclist with an Ortlieb pannier though he had it slung over his shoulder and open at the top. Sticking out of the bag was the rear triangle of a frame

Excellent bags. Used mine on two long trips and several shorter ones and they've been soopurb!
Still almost in brand new condition.

The vaude ones are almost as good, the edinburgh bicycle coop ones are made by vaude, and the ebc ones are orange and cheap. see here.

They have a roll top closure like the ortliebs and though I've not seen them retrieved from a canal I have seen them on a mate's rack for two days of rough stuff in torrential rain in Scotland and everything was bone dry.

Back Roller City in red can be had for £60 inc. postage.

Another option might be the Ortlieb Bike Shopper panniers. I have a pair and find them excellent. Completely waterproof, and they have two pockets on the inside. Also they are a doddle to clip on and off the bike, so you can, as the name suggests, carry them about as you shop. I keep mine locked to the rear rack the rest of the time just in case some low-life has the same idea!!

You might want to look at this site. I have used it 3/4 times and I have been very happy with the speed of delivery (2-3 days).

Interesting to compare the price of the Rose/Ortlieb Back Roller Classics with the additional Rose logo in a limited range of colours at €89.95 with that of the vanilla Ortlieb Back Roller Classics in all the usual colours at €109.95

I've used Rose a few times for bits and pieces and have always been happy.
