Ortlieb: The Pioneer of Waterproof Bicycle Panniers
From Truck Tarps to Bike Bags
Hartmut Ortlieb, the founder of Ortlieb, embarked on a groundbreaking bicycle journey in 1982. Faced with the lack of waterproof panniers, he ingeniously transformed truck tarps into durable bags that could withstand the elements.
A Legacy of Innovation
Today, Ortlieb has become a global leader in the production of high-quality bicycle panniers and bike bags. Their legendary Back-Roller model, known for its spaciousness and versatility, has been a mainstay in the cycling community for decades.
Ortlieb's products are renowned for their waterproof construction, durability, and thoughtful design. Their Back-Roller XL panniers offer even more storage capacity, while the Motorcycle Pannier System seamlessly adapts to both motorcycles and bicycles.
Ortlieb's commitment to innovation extends beyond panniers. The Carrying System Bike Pannier transforms bike bags into comfortable backpacks, enhancing versatility and convenience for cyclists on the go.
