Backpack or pannier? With the versatile and innovative Vario, you no longer have
to ask yourself this question. Featuring our Quick-Lock attachment systems on
one side and a padded carrying system with chest strap and ergonomic shoulder
straps on the other, The Vario transforms from backpack to pannier faster than
ever before. A so-called Flap with an integrated pocket covers the side that is
not in use. And for any items that you need quick access to, there is a zippered
outer pocket. Everything else can be accessed via the practical and proven roll
closure, including your laptop for which a padded compartment is provided. This
waterproof hybrid bag is PVC-free and sustainably manufactured in Germany.

Attention: Maximum load per pannier is 9kg / 20 lbs. We recommend
weighing each loaded pannier to confirm that the maximum allowance of the pannier
fixation is not exceeded. This practice is advised for both rear and front panniers.
CAUTION: The maximum weight capacity of every carrier model is different. Please
observe the maximum weight allowance of the carrier fitted to your bicycle. Note:
Sometimes the maximum capacity of the panniers fixing system can exceed the maximum
capacity of the carrier. DO NOT exceed the maximum capacity of the carrier! Note,
that the use of panniers will significantly influence the handling properties
of your bicycle.
Attention: As abrasion cannot be ruled out, we recommend that
all points where the mounting system contacts the bicycle rack or frame be protected
by scratch protection film.
Note: In order to meet standard IP64 (6=dustproof, 4=protected
against splash water coming from all directions) the roll closure must be rolled
at least 3-4 times.
