Works just as well fixed on the bike as it does on your back.
Several companies make backpacks-cum-panniers but Ortlieb make what we think is the best. In its pannier guise, the Vario's shoulder straps fold into the zipped vertical front pocket, a stiff internal backing plate ensuring there’s no disconcerting wobble behind you.
Chest straps keep it in place in its rucksack mode, the wide shoulder straps and rubberised padding ensuring it’s comfortable. It’s made from waterproof nylon, with Ortlieb’s usual high quality construction, has two external pockets, an internal pocket for a 15in laptop with plenty of room to spare. It’s not a quick swap from rucksack to pannier, but it performs well in both modes.
perfect size and love how its water proof
It really is well made, just the right size and just having it on one side of the bag doesn't just throw the weight on one side, I don't know how, but it feels like its not there, when fully loaded
Well made, versatile commuting bag that doubles as a rucksack
The price isn’t bad considering how robust the build quality is, the fact that it’s a fully waterproof pannier (or rucksack), is smart and versatile enough to be used as an office bag and that it’s of a size to be genuinely useful on a daily basis.
