Ortlieb

Madison, as many reading this know, is a great city to ride in. As a result its common place to commute by bike in Madison. Here at Willy Bikes we love commuting (and just about every other kind of riding!) and we carry a lot of gear to make commuting easier and more enjoyable! Whether it is fenders, a rack, or a new bike we’ve got you covered.

One product that we have been particularly impressed by, and is great for commuting, is Ortlieb bags. Ortlieb is a German company that makes some of the best bags in the world. All of their bags are totally water proof and their bike panniers use one of the best mounting systems around. These features make them a great choice for a riders looking to commute all year and in all conditions.

We stock a number of different Ortlieb bags, here are some pictures of a few different models and features.



Ortlieb Bike-Packer Classic.


This is a shot of the back of the bag. Notice how adjustable the attachments are. These bags work well on just about any rack (they work the best on the Tubus racks!)


This is Ortlieb's Plus material, lighter then their Classic material, yet just as waterproof.
