I bought all these Ortlieb Panniers so you don't have to!
In this video I review and explain:
- QL1 vs QL2.1 rack attachments;
- City vs Back-roller closure systems and differences;
- Classic vs Plus fabric - which one I prefer;
- Sports-roller (25l vs 40l);
- Ortlieb Handlebar Bag and mounting system (lockable and standard).
Why I chose the panniers for my cycle tour.

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?

​@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

Thanks for this

[@DJDJ808]

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

Easily removable = Easily Stealable
