Overview
Increase your Carrying Capacity!
The Bike Packer Plus waterproof rear panniers are Ortlieb’s top-of-the-line cross-country touring panniers. These panniers hold 40 liters of gear. A front pocket provides additional carrying capacity with quick access. The waterproof Cordura fabric ensures your cargo will stay safe and dry.
Couple these panniers with the Sport Packer Plus panniers and there’s not much you can’t bring with you. For tandem touring, a combination of these high-capacity panniers along with a bicycle trailer can be utilized to carry both riders’ gear.
