The Gold Standard for Grown-up Panniers
By Catherine E. Kehl
Before I came to Cleveland (for research) I was a bike commuter in Seattle. I'd seen Ortliebs around for years, but had resisted getting them because they were so expensive. And then eventually got tired of the lack of space, lack of durability and lack of waterproofing of other panniers. (Cleveland, by the way, has almost as much rain as Seattle, and more snow and ice to boot. And fewer serious cyclists...) When a whole set of revision comments written in water soluble ink were washed off a draft of a paper in a downpour, I had to switch over.They are exquisitely well designed - and very simple. No, they don't have extra pockets. Extra seams risk compromising waterproofing, and they are essentially dry bags with particularly well designed rack hooks. It's the little things. For instance, a week ago I was hauling kind of a ridiculous amount of old clothes to a Goodwill. An overstuffed paper shopping back nicely fills the main part of the pannier, and another can be stacked on top - but there isn't really enough strap left to close it. I spent a moment thinking that what I really wanted was a longer strap, male on one end, female on the other, to work as an extender... only to realise that the shoulder strap is exactly that. And yes, you can, in a pinch get four overstuffed larger paper grocery bags in the panniers, securely, though you won't be able to close the tops all the way afterwards. With some creative fastening, you can then get another bag crammed between them on the rack and strapped down.They are darn near bullet-proof. I've had mine for six years, I have been markedly unkind, and while there are a few faint scuffs, there is no damage at all. They are the best farmer's market bags ever - the straps go over your shoulder, and anything short of a goat will fit inside. There are a lot of baggage options out there, but for durability and versatility, I don't think these can be beat.

By Bethany V.
These work great! I've ridden with them in some heavy rainstorms, and everything inside was nice and cozy. I've gotten lots of compliments on the bags themselves from people who didn't realize they were bike bags, especially from guys. They're easy to install, and pull off nice and quick. They're secure once installed, too. The long strap is nice so you can carry them purse-style, otherwise the handle can be used. They expand a lot, and hold a nice load of groceries. My only gripe is I wished they included a small easy-access external pocket (waterproof isn't necessary). As a girl, I sometime wear skirts or pants without pockets (or annoying teeny tiny stupid girl pants pockets), and that leaves me no room to put my keys unless I put them in the bags. They are a little cumbersome to open and close, and it's annoying to keep my keys in there. Otherwise, I'm quite pleased!

By adjective
You get what you pay for with cycling gear, whether you're dealing with tires, rain gear, or panniers. Ortlieb panniers are widely considered the gold standard for commuter and touring gear--expensive, yes, but totally worth it if you want to buy the good stuff and be done with it. I was convinced to purchase a pair after taking note of a similar set a friend of mine had been using continuously for ten years; they scarcely showed any wear at all. Everything about the design is carefully thought-out, from the reflective patches on the side to the rugged, foolproof mounting hardware. They keep your stuff dry and stay hooked to your rack over every bump.
