Blackburn

Central Saddle Bag Pannier

Whether your adventure just takes you to class and back or deep into the desert of Arizona, there's something to be said for the usefulness of solid saddle bags, and the Blackburn Central Saddle Bags are no different. They equip you with a whopping 26-liters of storage space for stashing your books, laptop, and snacks when you head to the campus, or your true survival essentials when you embark on a longer journey bike-packing in the wild. These panniers are compatible with standard racks, and can be securely locked to your frame with the help of Blackburn's Interlock racks, going an extra step to secure your contents with a compression strap and stainless zipper pulls, so you don't have to stress if you have to leave your fully-loaded bike outside for a bit while you grab your morning coffee.

The interior of the Central Saddle Bags is equipped with a huge array of sleeves and pockets, making organizing your gear a breeze. Up top you'll find a shoulder strap that stays out of the way of your wheel thanks to magnetic clasps, but allows you to toss on the bag when you have to run to a meeting with your cargo. The bag is made from durable and weather resistant 600D polyester with PVC backing, and is treated with an additional durable water repellant coating to add an extra shield against moisture. If that isn't enough to give you peace of mind in a storm, the bags come along with a stowable rain cover to keep things safe when the sky opens up.
