Ortlieb Panniers Explained: QL1 vs QL2.1, City vs Back-roller, Classic vs Plus, Sports-roller Review

[@AcfLavertyy]

Really comprehensive video. Super handy for me, whilst I decide which one to buy. Thankyou so much!! ❤

[@tiberiumnp8030]

7:40 thank you for the video! I was going to go with City (or I think these are now called Back-Roller Core?) because it doesn't have the extra strap on the side that needs to be adjusted and could snag on things on tighter trails, but lacking ANY adjustment seems like a design failure.

At 12:15, the square loop "to open the handlebar bag" can be used with a key locking mount to stop someone opening the bag

Thanks for the time and effort you have put into making this very informative video, well done!

[@Diabloto96]

Thanks so much, I was getting lost in the paper instructions!

Useful video. Thanks Chris

[@AdventureSolos]

Thanks Nathan, feeling the love :D

[@annhunter7930]

Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful comparison! Now I feel confident about which set to order 😊

[@AdventureSolos]

You’re very welcome! What are you going for?

[@RogueAesthetica]

​@AdventureSolos the city is so much cheaper. The classic looks better by having a less plastic, glossy look and has a better locking mechanism so it can hold taller or more items, buy that in itself doesn't make it worth twice as much. So I'm going to get the city. Thank you so much for this video because I was clueless before watching

[@grantyol9888]

Thanks for this, very helpful!

[@PunaSquirrel]

I've always went with the 'Bike Packer Classic' for my rear panniers. Do you have an opinion on them?🤙🏼

[@susannahrosenberg157]

Very helpful. Thanks

Look Into BURLEY COHO XC 1NE-WHEEL CARGO Pannier Set X2. The Side Clips Are Adjustable. But Effects The Waterproof Level. Due To Less Folds. But, I Love The Fact Side Clips Are Adjustable.

There's no such thing as "too big" in a front handlebar bag... :) Accessibility = Enjoyment

At 11.19 kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6TWc2iorNlohbssi=En3Q3jQ34D6nriUL&t=679, these's an image of the inside of a pannier. It's festooned with bolt heads. They'd make a real mess of any laptop. Do all the panniers have these bolt heads, and if so, is there a standard way to minimise damage? As well as my laptop, I'd be wary of putting any lightweight gear eg a Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisperer jacket. That too would get shredded by bolt heads.

[@vigilant_1934]

They weren't designed with laptops in mind. Ortlieb has Urban/commuter ones that have compartments for things like that but the older ones like the Classic were for cross country bike touring not office jobs or school. A simple fix is placing the laptop in a smaller bag or wrapping it in a sweatshirt or something which is what I do for extra protection in my backpack even though it has a laptop compartment already. Some shops sell a commuter liner to go inside Ortlieb panniers.
