The Ortlieb Recumbent Bike Pannier is excellent for touring
Recumbent bikes are here to stay, and if you're planning on doing some bicycle touring on one, you're going to want to ensure you have the right bag for all of your gear. Ortlieb Recumbent Bike Panniers could be right up your alley - they offer an immense amount of storage and mount easily to your cycle.
These bags come with the guarantee of quality that you've come to expect from Ortlieb panniers - these bags are specifically designed to accommodate recumbent bicycles with an aerodynamic shape that won't slow you down, even on extended tours.
Ortlieb's unique QL2 mounting system makes it easy to mount and detach the bag in the blink of an eye, and a removable shoulder strap ensures comfortable transportation, even if you're not on your bike.
These panniers are made from PVC-coated polyester - a tough and durable material that can take whatever the road can throw at it. If you're a recumbent cyclist looking for bags that can help make touring easier, these may be right up your alley.
