Ortlieb Vario Pannier Backpack

As its name suggests, the Vario is a highly versatile and flexible pack offering lots of storage capacity. It quickly converts from a bike pannier to a comfortable backpack. The waterproof Vario made of tough and long lasting nylon fabric features a roll closure and offers space for A4 files and a 15.4“ laptop. The innovative QL3 system allows quick and single-handed fixing to and removal off the rack with a diameter up to 10 mm.

The mounting components remain on the rack, and the bag’s back stays clear of protruding hooks. For biking, the padded back carrying system complete with shoulder straps and chest strap is packed away into a concealed zippered front pocket, then for use it can be easily fixed to the back of the Vario. An external fixing safely stows away your bike helmet when it is not used.
