Blackburn Wayside Backpack Pannier
Description
Bike commuters know that ditching backpacks for panniers is the easiest ticket to sweat-free backs and more comfortable commutes. But then you arrive at work only to hand-carry an awkward pannier around all day. Not only is it uncomfortable, you look goofy. Even beyond converting from pannier to stylish backpack in minutes, 19L Wayside does so without sacrificing the functionality of either. The expandable volume is ample, and two front pockets allow easy separation between bike tools and what you need for work. Don’t be fooled by the simple design. The waxed canvas exterior has proven burley enough to keep our tester’s goods dry and secure even through some of the wettest spring commutes.
Key Features:
- Includes laptop sleeve and two external pockets that house organizers, pen/pencil sleeves, etc.
- Attaches to bike via robust hook and loop webbing … no hardware required and fit most bike racks.
- Daisy chain loop webbing provides extra opportunities to attach lights or other gear.
