I agree with a lot of the reviews already posted, so will specifically comment on the difference between this HUNTVP 27L bag and the Rhinowalk 22L bag ( though both are made by Rhinowalk. The main differences are:- Size - Not surprising given 27L vs. 22L. I felt I needed the extra space. Since I sometimes commute by bike and other days by car, I wanted to be able to just slide my main backpack inside my panier bag on the days I bike. My backpack really only carries my laptop and a couple small items and the 22L was not big enough for this, a change of clothes, and my bike lock.- Rack attachments - The 22L wins on design because the hooks have a latching mechanism that can also be released with the same hand used to pick the entire bag up off the rack. The 27L bag has plain hooks as well separate gate tab that can be moved to provide a locking mechanism. However, it requires two hands and is a small piece of plastic that I don't think would stand up to a firm jolt. However, the 27L wins on material as its hooks are made of metal, while the 22L's hooks are plastic. While the 22L hook mechanism is nice, I would worry about it breaking given the plastic material. Unfortunately, both bags lack a horizontal adjustment/reinforcement bar seen in some other bags, so spacing of the hooks might be an issue for some and, when the bag is overloaded, the alignment of the hooks can take a bowed out shape.- Straps - Both bags come with an assortment of straps including a shoulder sling and backpack straps. The 22L has a slight edge because its backpack straps tuck into a dedicated pocket while remaining partially attached, meaning they can easily be stowed while riding. You likely have to take the backpack straps off completely with the 27L. However, I always use the shoulder sling when carrying the bag off the rack, for which there was no difference between the two.- Strap attachment - One downside of both the 22L and 27L is that the point of attachment for the backpack and sling straps is plastic. The connection of the strap to the top of the bag is also part of the attachment from the top of the bag to the bottom of the bag which holds it shut. because of this, when the bag is rolled shut, there are two positions of possible failure bearing all the weight to the straps. Since these are made of plastic, I do worry that these might break. It would be better if these attachment components were metal.- Air release - The 22L has a one way air valve to release air once sealed while the 27L does not. However, I've yet to have any problem with too much trapped air when sealing the 27L, so I think this feature is negligible.- Mesh - The mesh helmet sling and water bottle holder on the outside of the 22L were nice features, but not enough to outweigh the other differences that lead me to favor the 27L- Other nice features common to both - Material seems super durable. Especially the bottom lining, which seems like it will hold up to wear and tear from any dragging on the ground. The covering for the hooks is a nice touch. The removable inner organizer is nice (though it would be better if the catching side of the velcro was on the strap rather than the organizer so it didn't catch on other things in the bag when not covered by the strap). The outer pocket is convenient, but I can't attest to the waterproofing issues brought up by others since I haven't experienced weather yet that will put it to the test.Overall, very pleased and would buy again.

Nicely thought out and made. I only bought one and use it on my ebike. No issues so far and handy to have it

Super easy to snap on the bike. Love that it becomes a backpack!! And waterproof! We recently went to the beach clamming…we took our provisions in this pack, they stayed dry & the bag was so easy to wipe down the exterior. Wonderful addition to our gear.

I am very happy with these bags! I bought them for a two day backpacking trip that was predicted with heavy rains. In the end, no rain, but the bags were great. I particularly like the laptop bag that buttons inside and can be removed to be used separately. They are a tiny bit on the heavier side, compared to cloth panniers, but other than that an excellent choice.

I would say these panniers are near perfect except for one big flaw. The bottom attachment where it should be secured to the back rack, is basically a strap with a snap. I have had several pairs of panniers over the last few decades and they all had adjustable hooks. This strap system doesn’t really work, hard to put on and there is always a chance of the traps getting loose and stuck in the spokes which could be actually dangerous. I must say the the quality and craftsmanship otherwise is really nice, lots of room and pockets. I especially like the removable sleeve inside. Now I do realize the strap attachment was created because this bag is convertible into a backpack and with a hook on the bottom it would be uncomfortable, but perhaps there is a way to get around that. I would actually buy this pannier if it only had should straps to carry and a hook for bottom attachment. Unfortunately I had to return; so sad!

I originally bought this bag for a trip. This bag is just small enough to go on a plane as a personal item, and big enough to hold all your things.I also commute by bike daily and having a backpack that I can clip on the back of my bike is incredible. The fact that it is a wet bag completes this product as my favorite daily bag.There is only 1 issue with this bag, the front pocket is not waterproof. I have 3 of these bags and today we were rained on for about 20 minutes, and both bags we were using had filled a small puddle in the front pocket. For context one bag has been in daily use for about 3 months, and the other has been used sparingly in the same timeframe.These bags are great and I will continue to use them for their versatility, especially at the price.Update: I’ve been using this bag daily since the beginning of the year (~10 months), and it’s holding up great.

I have a little over 500 miles of daily commuting on my pannier. Almost half of the distance is on gravel. I live in coastal, northern California so have used the bag in the rain a decent amount. The size is perfect for my lunch, laptop, and clothes. Everything stays snug and dry. I have used it to pick up groceries on the way home a couple of times. So far I do not see any wear issues. I would absolutely recommend this pannier.

The plastic that attached the backpack strap to the bag broke the moment I put it on for the first time. I imagine It's a just defect as the rest of the bag seems solid; nonetheless, I'm disappointed.

La calidad de los materiales es indiscutible. Se siente que son resistentes, pero también flexibles. El diseño es increÃble, pensado cada detalle y cada componente cumple una o más funciones.Muy contento con la compra.
