VARIO HIGH-VIS 26 L QL2.1 Pannier Bag and Backpack

Versatile, practical and really stylish!
With the VARIO HIGH-VIS 26 L by ORTLIEB you can choose whether you want to use the bike bag as a backpack or as a pannier – or both. With this bag/backpack, your visibility for other road users is improved enormously, because it is not only equipped with reflective design elements, but also boosts your visibility thanks to the incorporated reflective yarn. In addition, thanks to the practical QL2.1 bracket, the bag can be quickly attached to the luggage carrier, regardless of whether you attach it on the left or right side.

The VARIO system: The practical flap can be easily hooked onto the side of the bag and covers one of the two fronts as required – a clever combination of design and practicality!

Highlights & Technologies:

QUICK-LOCK2.1:
The bicycle bag mounting system QL2.1 is based on the proven QL2 system, but has been further upgraded to perfectly fit current pannier rack models. It can be used with almost all types of panniers. Exceptions include Back-Roller City and Sport Roller City and recumbent bike bags.
Comfortable single-handed operation
The 16 mm Quick-Lock hooks come with reducing sleeves with anti-scratch function in 8, 10 and 12 mm. For a more secure connection, the reducing sleeves of the QL2.1 are fitted into the base hook from the sides
For optimal stability the upper hook rail comes in a single-piece design, yet it can be adjusted to fit the either side of the rack on Office-Bag and Downtown models
A special tightening technique allows the use of particularly flat nut washers on the inside. This makes it almost flat and protects the goods being transported
The lower hook rail consists of a two-component plastic with anti-scratch function. The contact surfaces are soft to reduce rubbing against the rack tube. The lower hook rail is rotatable in 15-degree steps and adjustable in height.
All hooks may be adjusted without tools and replaced within seconds
The upper rail is compatible with optional theft protection systems

Note:
The reflective design elements attached to the clothing as decoration do not represent a personal protective equipment as mentioned in EU regulation 2016/425. Thus, they are also not covered by the provisions of the regulation.
