What is a pannier bag?
Pannier is a French word for basket and refers to a bag that attaches to a bike and is used to carry items.
How do pannier bags attach?
If you use the MIK mounting system , they attach effortlessly! This unique installation system affixes your pannier to the bicycle rack. Once the system is set up, it’s a simple case of sliding the bag into place and clicking it in securely. That’s all - one click and you’re ready to roll!
Do you need two pannier bags?
No, if you only want one that is perfectly fine. Just be conscious of the bike's weight distribution on your first ride - you will need to compensate for the fact it is heavier on one side.
Do panniers fit all bikes?
Not all bikes are designed to carry bags. If you don't have a bike rack or cannot see an obvious place onto which you can affix the carrier, contact our team. We will be able to provide you with specific advice.
