Review on 🚲 Bike Mule - Grocery Pannier Bags - Optimal Carrier Baskets for Shopping by Bicycle - Set by Rip Twin

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nothing for big wheels.

First impression after initial installation. Limited design. Too high for me. Obviously the design wasn't made for different size bikes. This was designed for small bikes. I have a large mountain bike that I converted to an e-bike with 29" wheels. Mounting hooks are located in the middle of the bags, so you'll have to lightly smack someone on the head while balancing on one foot to secure the bike with groceries. They improve Bungie a lot and are very strong to tip the high load bike to get it back up. For twice the price I would have expected a better design. I would have preferred the bags to actually hang much lower on the bike rack to lower the center of gravity and be able to mount something on the bike rack itself. I'll update later and see if I can figure something out before deciding whether to return it. The bags themselves look very high quality, but the design is short-sighted.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Hard to say
