Bike-Packer Plus

Both models are waterproof, robust, and equipped with the proven ORTLIEB mounting system.
The Back-Roller is the classic ORTLIEB pannier with a roll closure. It offers maximum flexibility when packing, can be compressed variably, and is ideal for everyday use and tours with changing loads.
The Bike-Packer, on the other hand, features a flap-style lid closure. This allows the interior to be loaded especially securely, and additional items can be attached on top. This makes it perfect for longer cycling trips or more structured packing.

That depends on the mounting system used. Our Quick-Lock2.1 and Quick-Lock2.2 bags can be secured directly to the luggage rack using the optional QL2-Lock. The lock is attached to the upper rail of the mounting system and reliably secures the bag to the bike. However, the bag itself is not locked.

With Quick-Lock3.1, locking the bag is not possible.

To the QL2-Lock

The Bike-Packer Plus is waterproof according to protection class IP54. This rating indicates:

The product is dust-protected and protected against splashing water from all directions. Even in heavy rain, the contents stay perfectly dry. This makes the Bike-Packer Plus perfect for longer rides in the rain or your daily commute in very bad weather.

More about waterproofness

With ORTLIEB’s Quick-Lock mounting systems, you can easily attach the bag to the luggage rack with one hand. Removing it is just as easy. You’ll find the exact mechanism for each Quick-Lock system on our overview page.

More on durability and repair.

ORTLIEB products are extremely robust because we use high-quality materials and permanently weld all seams. This eliminates the need for stitching or bonding, and all connections are at least as strong as the material itself. If something does get damaged, holes can be safely rewelded by us or by our authorized service partners.
