Using these Ortlieb Back - Roller Free panniers is a breeze. First, use the Quick - Lock 2.1 system to attach the bags to your bike rack. Make sure the tube diameter of your rack is up to 16 mm, and if it's 8, 10, or 12 mm, use the included reduction pieces. The top QL hooks and lower sliding hooks can be adjusted without any tools, so you can set them up quickly. To access your stuff, just open the roll - top closure. You can carry the bags off the bike using the handle or the shoulder strap. When it comes to maintenance, the waterproof exterior is great, but if it gets dirty, wipe it down with a damp cloth. The interior is easy to clean too. The anti - scratch and anti - abrasion features are there to protect your bike rack and the bags, but try to avoid rough handling. Store the bags in a cool, dry place when not in use.
