Bushwhacker Omaha Bicycle Grocery Panniers – Foldable Bike Rack Bags & Basket for Groceries – Easy 3-Point Mounting System – Pair of Rear Bags for Shopping and Cycling Commuting

I have owned these almost 3 years. They are used several times a week except in winter. Stored inside when not in use. Still in very good shape. I fit a cooler bag in one and a reusable grocery bag in the other for my once week shopping. Also fit a lunch cooler in one and work bag in the other for ride to work. Also great place for my ulock.

On the expensive side but overall worth it- they are very high quality and will likely last a very long time

These panniers do their job and seem fairly sturdy. Compared to the similar REI panniers I'm now retiring (after 15-20 years of use) these seem well made but the slightly thinner plastic reinforcing sheet is more flexible. This sheet may be ABS rather than the polyethylene that REI used and may therefore be stronger.A plus is that while the REI panniers hold a full-size grocery bag easily, these have about 1/2" extra clearance on both sides. I also note these panniers mount a little higher, giving more heel clearance when peddling (I added clearance for my REI panniers by mounting my rack 3/8" further back, which leveled the rack more).For negatives, the painted steel rack mount clips would damage an alloy rack and will damage the paint on my steel rack (I will NOT use these on the aluminum rack on my wife's Schwinn Suburban bike but my rack is well worn so I don't care about more scratches on it). I also prefer the solid fabric sides on my old panniers compared to the lightweight mesh sides on these new panniers. In addition, the S-hooks on the bungee cords will NOT fit into the available holes in my bike frame without straightening the larger hook a lot; at least they're made from stainless steel so they are somewhat ductile.

LOVE. Easy on and off. Secure. Sturdy. Can hold more weight than your bike would probably like. Fold flat and snap shut totally out of the way for riding and storage. No need to routinely remove and put back on unless you need to use your rear rack for another purpose. They hold a standard reusable sized grocery bag *filled to the brim*— way more groceries than you would put in each bag when putting in the back of your car because they won’t tumble out when you brake hard or slide around on a sharp turn... so I would say you could carry the equivalent of three brown grocery bags worth of groceries. Just make sure it’s not 3 bags worth of water or beverages that weigh a ton. The panniers can actually handle the weight. Just like I said your bike might not be happy if you did that regularly. They easily fit a fully stuffed high schoolers sized backpack. Deep. Even though sides are heavy nylon mesh and fabric, they are frames and reinforced with metal rods. Extremely lightweight. I have had no issues with the hardware used to secure to side of my rack. They do not “jump off” as some have mentioned here. They are very secure. But as we know all rear racks are not created equal and they have different overall dimensions depending upon which one fits your bike frame. My rack is sturdy with round tube shaped framing. They are 100 % secure on this type of rack. There are also literally only 3 directions to install. One of them tells you the easy fix if there is not enough tension in the bungee that pulls down to keep the clips secured. I don’t think these are design flaws. I imagine if they are popping off they just aren’t well fitted to your rack or bike or the bungee was not adjusted for a secure fit. It will be obvious if they aren’t secure before you ride with them if you understand that the bungee should be exerting enough tension from below the rack hooks to keep them *firmly* in place. There is no way they would jump off with the proper amount of tension. That said... I would honestly upgrade my rack for these if the diameter of the framing was the issue. These are so perfect for my needs that it would be worth it to me.Love that they are not screwed on. Love that they fold completely flat. Love the depth. Love that they are open on top like wire baskets but without the pain of being “permanently” installed with screws. Love that they take 15 seconds to install and remove. Been using them almost daily for a couple of months to work and back and on all errands and haven’t had a single issue. I have definitely overloaded them as well. They can handle it even though I shouldn’t be doing that to my bike. Hope this helps.

When I want to do some touring or just get a little exercise these very simply fold out of the way and allow for easy parking. When I make my weekly trip to our grocery store these panniers hold an incredible amount of product and I’m amazed with what they’ll carry in weight. The low center of gravity and balanced weight distribution makes for a safer ride as well.Definitely one of my top purchases in 2024.
