Elops Pannier Rack Backpack

I purchased this to use when commuting to replace my old fashioned single panniers which were a real pain to carry around. It did not disappoint! Really sturdy zip which joins the two halves of the rucksack with heavy duty clips to attach to the pannier rack and a catch that flips out to prevent it from jumping off the rack when you're riding. My only down side for this rucksack is the capacity - it's a bit smaller than my regular rucksack so you're a little limited with what you could fit in there. I usually manage my laptop/charger, notebook, lunch and water bottle and that's about the limit of the capacity.

Clips on and off relatively easily. Haven’t tested it in rain. Would be nice if they did this in several sizes

I finally fitted a rack to my back after getting more and more shoulder problems from lugging around a rucksack for years. It’s amazing…does exactly what I need. It looks great, has just about enough space for my kit, trainers, laptop and other work stuff including lunch. It fits really well to the bike, really secure as long as you make sure to click it down fully on both sides. The waterproof cover works well, and the fact that bottom and sides are waterproof anyway really helps for day-to-day splashes. I absolutely love the fact you just whip it off the bike, do the zip up, and it becomes a rucksack! I really do recommend this, it has changed my life!

Really useful bit of kit - nice rucksack which carries a laptop and files - easily converts to a pannier and has a rain cover stored in a pocket - really clever design and very practical

I've used this twice. Lovely design but the clips must have been faulty because despite putting it in the correct position the whole bag fell off whilst I was cycling and I've lost everything including a new macbook. Devastated.

Plenty of space

Perfect for my commute to work, stores my 15" MacBook and a few other bits no problem, fits my pannier frame well. Good quality material too. My only wish is that they made a slightly larger version.

Absolutely love this rucksack, such a game changer and makes commuting so much easier. Very easy to use and worth the money. Highly recommend.

I have been using this bag for about a year now on a once or twice weekly commute of 8 miles. I love the fact that it looks like a normal backpack but is really well thought through for a pannier bag. I carry laptop - sometimes two, cables/chargers, (Scrub top and trousers), spare shoes, lunchbox and drink bottle. It couldn't manage much more! Improvements - maybe covered zips for light showers (though there is an integral bright yellow rain cover it's a bit fiddly). Also would prefer the front zip to be horizontal rather than vertical (just in case I forget to do it up). Overall, its going strong but if it gives up I would buy another.

simply amazing

I needed a new back pack for my work laptop and looked at more expensive pannier options that often didn't have useful internal pouches. My own commuter e bike is very grey so it is great to have the pullout hi vis cover that protects it from the weather and crud form the road and cyclepaths . I thought the bag might flap about on some of the bumpier gravel paths I use on my regular route but it doesn't. Sits well on my Lapierre Overvolt explorer bike. Quality is good too .My only criticism is that I would like to see more products developed like this with a greater capacity.

I was looking for a hybrid between a backpack and a bike pannier, and Decathalon produced a great product that is both affordable and practical. I would definitely recommend this for a city/urban biker as its quick and easy to put onto the back bike rack and easy to take off.
