FAQs

Is the external pocket waterproof?

No, the external zipped pocket is water-resistant but not fully waterproof. It is suitable for items that can tolerate some moisture, such as a D-lock or tools, but not for electronics or sensitive documents.

What is the IPX6 rating?

An IPX6 rating means the product is protected against heavy sprays of water. It can withstand powerful water jets from any direction, making it highly suitable for protection against rain and road spray.

How do I securely close the bag to ensure it's waterproof?

To ensure waterproofing, the roll-down top must be tightly rolled at least three times before securing the buckle. This creates a watertight seal.

Can I attach this bag to a front rack?

This pannier bag is specifically designed for rear cycle racks. The mounting system is not intended for or compatible with front racks.

What is the warranty period?

The bag comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, covering manufacturing defects under normal use.

How do I clean the pannier bag?

You can clean the bag by wiping it with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Always allow it to air dry completely.

What are the dimensions of the bag?

The bag has a capacity of 30 litres. Specific external dimensions are not provided, but it is designed to be a standard-sized pannier.

Troubleshooting

Bag does not attach securely to the rack

Ensure the rack rails are clean and within the compatible size range for the mounting system. Check that the quick-release mechanism is fully engaged.

Water ingress despite waterproof material

Verify that the roll-down top is closed correctly and tightly rolled at least three times. Check welded seams for any damage. Note that the external zipped pocket is not waterproof.

Shoulder strap not comfortable

Adjust the strap length for a better fit. Ensure the bag is not over-packed, which can add unnecessary weight and discomfort.
