Good panniers, but fastening system needs improving.

- ROMAIN, 18 August, 2022

Good, roomy panniers. The fastening system is not very easy to install; the device at the bottom of the pannier is not suitable for all bikes. In any case, ineffective for mine.

Pros & Cons

bag closure
large capacity
looks solid
bag's bottom fastener not secure
fastening system not easy

Tiptop hard bag, stays in good shape.

- Familie, 20 June, 2022

Quickly received the product (faster than indicated). But installing with the strings was a hell of a job because it's hard to reach, so really had to solve with water pump pliers. Note: Bag also rubs against the wall, making bag look ugly quickly.

Pros & Cons

Fine rigid construction
Rounded at the heels
Difficult to install
Fits less than 'floppy pannier'

Fine bags with terrible fastening

- Geert, 8 August, 2021

After spending an hour 'fiddling' with those straps and brackets, ON THE BOTH SIDE OF YOUR BAGAG RACK, cutting off straps/ breaking out brackets and using thick tie-ribs to secure everything tight to the rack (leave the bits of strap where the tie-ribs can go through!)... then they are fine bags!

Pros & Cons

Lots of space
Reasonable price
Sturdy
Most awkward straps

Sturdy bag and suitable for all weather conditions

- Mohamed, 11 November, 2020

Beautiful bicycle bag with plenty of space and a sturdy closure. Bags can be folded in and out by pvc plates, which can be placed in special slots. I have a trekking bike myself and could not attach the pannier properly at the bottom.

Pros & Cons

can be folded in and out
Material
Space
Waterproof
bags cannot be separated
Velcro/attachment at the bottom bad

Nice double bag. Weird: right bag is 1.5 cm narrower. Reinforcement plates do not fit as a result.

- M., 12 September, 2020

Not normal for the buyer to have to craft reinforcement inserts themselves. Or trim the existing ones. Risky because material is unruly and cutting straight is a disaster. Nice bag in itself, but the difference in sizes is dilettante for a serious manufacturer. Also weird: the left bag (with the wider size) surprises in that only one reinforcement plate can be fitted there too. The other(s) is also already of wrong size. In other words: doesn't fit. So you keep cutting. In itself, the bag seems sturdy. I use it too short (few days) for good judgement on that.

Pros & Cons

Company Mantel has attractively priced
nice model
rounded front well thought out
sizes are a mess

The grey/black version looks especially nice

- Stefaan, 17 August, 2020

decent finish even better would be if like around the insides, there would also be similar hardening in the top flaps.
