Roswheel Bike Bag Accessories Panniers for Bicycle Rear Rack Bag 50L Waterproof Mountain Electric Bike Saddle Bags for Cycling Traveling Commuting

These have to be about the best bang for buck out there. I had to replace mine recently, and I went straight for the same model.Things I like: all the zippers are covered. It's a small detail, but it helps keep grunk out of the zippers and water out of the bags. The zippers are good. I've never had any sticking, or jammed slides, or zippers popping open, and I've definitely stressed them, overfilling with fairly heavy items, like canned goods. The zippers have double slides on the main compartments, another nice touch. The stitching is good - it never runs off the edge of the fabric, resulting in failed seams. and the main seams are double-stitched, with additional bar and x tacking at stress areas. I like the trunk bag. It adds more capacity than I expected.I like the stiffening insert being installed and stitched into its pocket instead of having to wrestle and wiggle a plastic sheet into pockets that never seem to hold it, like some panniers I've seen. All of the plastic clips seem secure, and I've not had one come loose or break. There are other nice touches, like the smooth material on the sides facing your wheel. Makes them easy to clean and adds some water-resistance.I'd describe the size of these panniers as medium, and that's fine for my use, which is mostly errands and commuting. I've certainly done extended weekend camping rides with smaller panniers than these, so I'm happy with the size - holds a weeks groceries with no problem.What I'd change: No deal breakers here, really. The trunk bag zipper could go further around the bag. It only opens at the end, which means you may be doing some digging for items stored at the far end, away from the zipper. Any claims of reflectivity are not warranted. For example, the ROS logo is claimed to be reflective. It is not - it's just shiny. So what is reflective? See the tiny white lines on the wide black webbing used for the clips? That's it. Those thin white lines are actually retro-reflective. That's not enough. Easily fixed with some LightWeights silver flex tape ( Lightweights SilverFlex SuperBright Reflective Tape 100 ). I'd also like to see attachment points for clip-on taillights. And maybe a few more webbing loops/clips for additional bungee points or lashing.So why do I have to replace these bags if they're that great? Well combine a day ride with the grand kids, a few leftovers in fast food bags that I didn't clean out of my bags when we got home, and a hitherto unsuspected (and unexpected) rodent in our garage. Yep, these bags are definitely not rat-proof. By the next morning I had bags that would only be useful for toting a couple medium pillows. Anything smaller would have fallen out the rat-holes chewed in the bottoms of my bags.But buy them anyway - these are a great value for non-rat-proof panniers.

I want to make this clear, I am rating the product itself not Amazon warehouse deals, which is why I am giving it 5-stars instead of 3 but I'll start with Amazon warehouse, just in case if you plan on buying it from them instead of new, like how I did. If you're not, just scroll down further to the review of the product.Amazon warehouse deal-- I was able to buy this product at a discounted rate. I don't mind using products that have been previously used. However, Amazon warehouses need to do a better job at checking out their products that are being resold. There are some stains on the bag, not a big deal, it's kind of expected and their relatively small. In one of the side pannier bags there were a lot of white powder substance. I didn't really notice until I started putting clothes in there for my cycling work to commute and when I got to work to take them out and put them on, they were covered in white powdery stuff. Since I didn't have any violent rages for cocaine, it probably wasn't anything bad. I just wish it was better cleaned out before being resold.The other issue is that I am an Amazon Prime member and get 2-day deliveries on most items but this took a week to get here due to some 'difficulties.' And I mean, it happens. I'm not unreasonable. However, it is another thing to add to the list of issues I had ordering a product from one of Amazon's warehouses.The last issue I had was that there was a screw in one of the side pannier bags also. I mean, it's just a screw. Not a terribly huge deal until you realize that it could have been a nail or something else that could be potentially dangerous. Like I said, I don't mind ordering used products but I won't be doing it from Amazon warehouse for quite a while.Now the actual review for the product-- It's great! It's super strong, durable, incredibly spacious. If you need to do some grocery shopping or just need to carry a lot of stuff, this bag will do it! I also plan on using it to be a bike messenger for Postmates when the temperatures are at least above 50F (since I don't think food orders would stay warm for that long in temperatures lower). I am very happy with the bag itself. I haven't even used the top bag yet!The side bags have a strong back surface to keep it from flopping around and hitting the wheels. Both side bags have velcro straps to keep them in place also and won't swing back and forth. On the top of the side panniers, once you unhook the buckles on the top and release the velcro straps, you just grab the handle on the top and carry it like a normal bag. Your feet also don't hit the bags. If they do, the only thing I can think of is to try and readjust the length of your rear cycling rack, so the bag wouldn't be as close to your feet when pedaling.I really enjoy this bag. Buy it new. If you buy it used, don't get it from Amazon warehouse, get it from another seller.

I have bought two of these now, so I must like 'em.The first lasted 10,000 miles over 5 years and started to show the wear and tear.The only problem was that the d ring where top bag strap attachs tore the stitches out when I was carrying my ebike battery (my bad).The second has only lasted 1000 miles and 6 months before the bottom seam of the main bag came out. I don't have a sewing machine to handle thick inner plasticized layer, and E6000 did not hold. Looks like I will have to take the old bag and hope no one notices.I like the size of this bag, the thick canvas. It is handy having the large bag for heavy clothes (winter mornings) and smaller pockets for tools and other smaller items.I wish there was a better way to attach the pannier to the rack that would help with unbalanced loads. The weather proofing did not wear well, but that is not so important to me.

I only really use these for groceries, but they've stood against the elements for a while. More intense sun than anything. The main pouches have two zippers, while the smaller side ones only have one, but all are easy to grab and never give unnecessary trouble. They can fit an overflowing hand basket worth of groceries, maybe more if you're clever. I never have a problem with hitting my heels on them, and the straps allow them to adhere to a variety of different racks. I definitely say they are of good value.
