DIY Waterproof Panniers Out Of Dry Bags

[@ulibredulli]

In a pinch, you can probably use 700cc inner tubes, instead of the bungee cord (I use old tubes for strapping stuff down). Old spokes also make for fairly sturdy hooks (double it up), but I'd only use them on the bottom, instead of the picture fram hook, and stick with your solution up top.

WOOWW.. I'm thinking make like this on normal back packs.. Thanks for solve my problem.. 👍👍 🙋‍♂️ from rep. of Panama..

[@travelandfilming]

Really cool!

[@nadMoZzzg]

Genius stuff. I mean you can make puzzle game out of it, especially when you need to reporpose door hinges and other random unexpected stuff you have no idea even exist

[@joannekeefe426]

That is ingenious! Thank you!

Good job - thanks for sharing 👍 It would be a good idea to put PVC tape on the metal hooks etc. so as to prevent the metal scratching your bicycle or anything / anyone else. This is definitely a great way to repurpose an old satchel or laptop bag that you don´t use much. And the result, although not waterproof, will probably be having a much better looking, less expensive and more practical bag. For waterproofing - just keep a bin liner inside your bag, and put your items inside that if it is wet / raining that day. Or apply a waterproof spray to the finished product. cheers! JB

I will send this to Henry; because our bags leak badly. I like your mudflaps. Thankyou for sharing this: back roller classics , which I was told are a spinoff of kayak bags; are $200.

Dude! This is huge! Hell yea

[@Chidoeg]

This is a great idea. Wow very inspiring idea. I will use back pack for this. Thanks

Hi, what an awesome idea, thanks for making the video! I'm wondering what the sizes are of the screws, nuts, washers, and shelf brackets you used in the video. I assume they're a consistent diameter. Perhaps the materials list (plus the backpack straps) could be listed in the video description. Thanks!

How do you attach the backplate to the bag?

[@lingchenislam]

Thank you so much for sharing. It really helpful.

[@daisukiyamamoto3904]

Have you ever test how much weight can carry?

[@paulahavens2764]

how did you seal the bag after putting the holes in it to keep water out?

[@vwmullen]

Nice idea! Clean it up a little and you could sell these on Etsy

[@monteyagua3699]

you think this will work in a motorcycle?, won't the bag rip because of higher speed??

[@serimkoc1810]

hi , thank you so much for the tutorial its really helpful! can i ask you how did you attach the square plastic piece to the dry bag ? thank you !

[@BicycleHoboo]

The hardware that you put into it. The clips the bungee holds the plastic piece together on the bag. It's always a good idea to put some rubber cement on your washers on the inside and the outside. As you tighten it the rubber cement will make a better waterproof seal for extra security.

[@serimkoc1810]

@@BicycleHoboo ah super ! really helpful thank you

[@Ohmman]

definitely would have to base measurements for clip distances but good stuff

[@BonaBoy]

is there a second piece of plastic inside the bag that you're putting the nut and bolt through?

[@BicycleHoboo]

Normally I just use very large washer

[@deepsouthNZ]

Brilliant mate thanks!

[@pnutbuttrful]

What did you use to cut the bag? Scissors? Drill? Thanks!

[@BicycleHoboo]

I use a ice pick to punch my holes.

[@nicholasferreiraaraujo2504]

Very creative!

[@TheMontaseri]

You need to zoom out a bit ..

[@BicycleHoboo]

Yes I completely understand some of my videos are very bad quality. But more less I'm just trying to get my point across and help people build their own bags.

[@JohnnyB43]

Finding the right type of plastic for the side panel is going to be tough I think 😕

[@yiucycle]

cheap flexable cutting board works great and they are super cheap.

[@JohnnyB43]

@@yiucycle Good idea!
