Review on ๐Ÿšด Ultimate Waterproof Roswheel Bike Bag: Bike Pannier + Trunk Bag with Rain Cover - Perfect for Cycling by Yung Kitamura

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best baskets/bags for the price.

I've been using these baskets for a few days now and am very impressed so far. I drive to and from work every day. I haven't had a chance to test the bags in the rain yet to test their weather resistance. Pros: The bags feel pretty sturdy and the hard lining keeps them from falling into the wheel. The large velcro is also very strong and hasn't moved or loosened yet. The zippers also seem to be quite strong, although I'm not sure how long they will last. The side pockets are quite big but not so big that they touch the heel. I can store a change of clothes on one side and my cycling jacket and climbing shoes fit in easily on the other side. The top pocket is quite large and easily fits at least 4-5 13" laptops (I think it fits in easily). several 17" laptops, but I don't have any to try). The top pocket is so convenient. I can leave my laptop and valuables there, just open the bag and carry it as a messenger bag during the day. That way I don't have to fiddle with zippers or pull anything out of side pockets. Cons: The top buckles that attach the panniers to the bike rack are very small and easy to detach. I have to tighten them and check every ride. The buckles that attach the top bag to the baskets cannot be tightened. This means if you have a slightly empty bag with a heavy item or two (e.g. a water bottle) the bag will shift slightly. I had a bottle on the bottom of the bag and this caused the whole bag to hang off the back of the rack and rub against my rear wheel. When you fill the bag full, the buckles are tight enough to keep the bag from moving, but with an empty or lightly packed bag, it may slip. Overall I'm very happy with the baskets for the price. I'll update this review if something breaks with continued use, but as long as I can use this set for 2 years I'm happy. In future versions, I would like adjustable buckles for the top pocket and stronger buckles for attaching to the trunk.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
