Reviews over the

Basil Urban Load

Very nice spacious bicycle bag. For us, we needed to find a bag that could be used with a bike seat. Didn't seem to fit for a while, but eventually it did.

Pros & Cons

It meets my expectations, I am very happy with it.

Pros & Cons

Easy to use and nice and roomy

Pros & Cons

Sturdy pannier bag with nice volume. Shopping bag fits into bag

Pros & Cons

Sturdy, waterproof and spacious bike bags. We do our shopping with them where we regularly fill the bags with drinks, which is quite a weight anyway.

Pros & Cons

Nice spacious pannier and waterproof

Practical bags, totally meet my expectations.

Pros & Cons

They are big spacious panniers, mega easy to use and super practical. Solid material and waterproof

Pros & Cons

Good for bike shopping

I can store my school bag well in these panniers.

Pros & Cons

Fine, according to expectations

Pros & Cons

Convenient size bags, water-repellent material. Folds flat when there is nothing inside.

A nice big pannier that holds a lot

Top product, these panniers meet the expectation.

Pros & Cons

I’ve owned many other Basil panniers over the years (my fave brand) so I thought they would be good quality and I know how to install them. However with these panniers the back corner bounces into my spokes when cycling, bringing me to a sudden stop. This has now caused injuries and put me in dangerous situations! I have now stopped using these panniers after less than a week. The panniers have now bent my mudguard. The panniers also knock on my heels when cycling so cannot be moved forwards to prevent the connection with my wheel. Tried to get a refund but told I couldn't do this as they were now used. So have wasted my money and still need new panniers.

Pros & Cons

Yes , t product is very much how I thought the pannier would look ..nice...big....

Pros & Cons

Lovely large bag.

Pros & Cons

Super practical and well-made bags. I can store my work backpack with computer on one side and use the second side to store my errands when I get out of the office. It makes everyday life without a car totally feasible and comfortable!

Pros & Cons

Great panniers for weekly shopping: everything fits inside. Because of the seal at the top you have to open the bags with 2 hands. On an e-bike the size is no problem: you don't hit them with your shoes.

Pros & Cons

highly recommended product! very happy with the purchase

Pros & Cons

Fine panniers with lots of space. Speed straps are also still usable .

Pros & Cons

Very nice panniers, waterproof, easy to assemble and at the bottom small holes for when you have left them open once that the water runs out. Just good quality panniers of good size. Would be nice if they were available in more cheerful colors.

Pros & Cons

Long No bicycle bag taken. Finally made the choice to take 1 anyway. World of wonders have opened up

Pros & Cons

Nice size panniers. Easy and quick to attach.

Pros & Cons

The panniers are easy to mount, look nice and can hold a lot of groceries. It does make it harder to park your bike in a rack among other bikes, and when the bags are full, the bike sometimes falls over. It's worth it, though, because the bags are super!

Pros & Cons

The bags are bigger than my previous panniers. It is thick quality so super against the rain.

Pros & Cons

It is a nice handy pannier that fits a lot. It is easy to use and looks very stylish on my bike. I am very happy with it.

Pros & Cons

Super happy with my panniers and their size. Put into use during our vacation.

Pros & Cons

I was looking for a pannier that could easily hold my work bag and then also close it easily. And this pannier did the trick. My work bag is heavy but the pannier keeps its shape and stays securely attached to the bike. I am happy with it!

Pros & Cons

I am super happy with it.the clasp you can adjust .so you can secure your purchases well on the bike.

Pros & Cons

The mounting instructions are very unclear (and do not match reality) and the mounting system (with straps) does not seem well thought out to me!

Pros & Cons

Roll closure and snap closure on the bag keeps things dry.

Pros & Cons

excellent bag strong and stylish

Pros & Cons

Whereas I used to not want to be seen with panniers, I am very happy with my cow print bags with lots of storage space! Wonderfully practical and they look nice too. I'm happy :)

Pros & Cons

These are very solid panniers! Attaching them with the straps takes some searching, but once attached they look very good on the bike. They are not reinforced to keep their shape at all times, but that does not bother me. Furthermore, they are very roomy and water-repellent. And all at a good price; I would buy them again!

Pros & Cons

Very pleasant bags, super spacious, everything fits inside. Also waterproof and a small hole in the bottom to drain water. I am totally happy with them!

Pros & Cons

N/A

Pros & Cons

Nice sturdy panniers with lots of capacity and a nice print too. Very happy with them. Now we can go shopping by bike again instead of by car! Fast service: we received the panniers the day after ordering.

Pros & Cons

Very satisfied. Been looking for a long time for an affordable pannier big enough for laptop + backpack. Also fits bike shorts. Easy closure so you can get in and out of the pannier quickly.

Pros & Cons

excellent pannier

Pros & Cons

I was looking for spacious panniers to carry lots of groceries and, preferably, that can also withstand rain. These panniers from Basil fully meet that requirement. You can fit a lot in them and they are made of sturdy water-repellent material. Even when empty, they keep their shape nicely. The only downside I found was the fastening with the straps: the small buckles can damage the carrier and the bags can slide a bit forwards and backwards while riding. All in all, the latter turns out to be not too bad.

Pros & Cons

As expected, good purchase for my new electric bike

Pros & Cons

The Basil urban double bicycle bag looks solid, green colour is nice and just a bit different from the standard black bicycle bags.

Pros & Cons

Am very happy with it, sturdy bags

Pros & Cons

These are the 3rd I've bought in 10 years, all the same. So I love them

Pros & Cons

The panniers are exactly what I expected them to be. Roomy enough for all the shopping. And delivered quickly

Pros & Cons

Fine panniers. Can hold a lot and are waterproof. When not in use, they are easy to fold together

Easy to install and use!

Pros & Cons

Fully to my expectations. Easy to assemble and ample storage space.

Pros & Cons

Nice panniers, convenient to use and nice and roomy.

Pros & Cons

Wonderful panniers that also partly due to the spacer purchased with them could not hit the spokes after mounting. the old one my mother had did. Very good service for my mother with mounting and very helpful people. Keep up the good work!

Pros & Cons

The Panniers suitable for daily use also for shopping. And the work bag also goes along easily and plus the push-in chain also goes along in this pannier.

Pros & Cons

Totally awesome!

Pros & Cons

Transform your bike with these easy-to-install panniers, which allow you to carry a large volume of cargo in complete safety, whatever the weather!

Pros & Cons

Praktische fietstassen die makkelijk smaller ingeklapt kunnen worden. Mooi design en veel ruimte. Makkelijk te bevestigen

Pros & Cons

Easy to assemble.

Waterproof large panniers, we have to put them far back otherwise I would kick against them with my feet.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

When unpacking the panniers, I immediately noticed that they were very different from the Basil panniers I already had! The material looks like oilcloth to me, very waterproof. At the top, the bags are sort of folded back, further reducing the chance of water seepage. The bags are quite deep, and can still be closed perfectly even when full to the top with the snap buckles. The fact that both the bottoms and the sides (at the wheel) are reinforced also makes me hopeful that they will keep their shape longer. I haven't included a separate attachment system (yet), but the fact that this is an option is definitely a plus. Mounting on carrier is smooth.

Pros & Cons

Decent pannier bag that does just fine, good quality and very spacious bags

Pros & Cons

Happy with these nice big panniers. And are thankfully waterproof!

Pros & Cons

Run errands on your bike with a bag from Urban Load and you won't be lugging yourself around anymore.

Pros & Cons

Good solid bike bags for daily use!

Pros & Cons

Satisfied with the delivery and the quality of the panniers.

Great bag

Pros & Cons

Unfortunately, however nice the bag looks, so poor the quality. After 2 months, the stitching starts to come off at the top. I only use the bags for my handbag. Now I have to send them in and they are looking at repair options, this takes max 3 weeks. Had to buy replacement bags though, because I can't live without them. Pity and not recommended,

Pros & Cons

Just big enough for 2 bags with groceries, easy click closure, sturdy and well waterproof when your bike is outside. In case you forget to close it, there are drainage holes so the water drains easily.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Nice panniers at a great price. Real value for money! Solid, tough and elegant all in one!

Pros & Cons

The compartments are deep and wide. Therefore extremely suitable for groceries and even a large (laptop) bag. The retro colour combination (green/white) is super nice. With various reflective elements also highly visible in the dark. Highly recommended!

Pros & Cons

Easy-to-install bags. Large capacity, they close easily and securely.

Pros & Cons

2 nice, sturdy and spacious bags for on the luggage carrier
