Bicycle Bags – for Everyday Use, Commuting & Bikepacking
Whether on the way to work, on a weekend tour, or bikepacking: bicycle bags turn your bike into a practical means of transport. At Markenkoffer.de you will find bicycle bags from Ortlieb, Vaude, KLICKfix and other specialists – waterproof, robust and easy to mount.
Bicycle Bags by Position
Rear Bike Bags
The classic for commuters and touring cyclists: rear bike bags (pannier bags) offer the most storage space and can be quickly attached to the luggage rack via a click system. Ideal for shopping, commuting and multi-day tours.
Front Bike Bags
For better weight distribution on tours: front bike bags are mounted on the front fork or the lowrider. Especially indispensable for bikepacking to evenly distribute the weight.
Handlebar Bags
Quick access to map, smartphone and snacks: handlebar bags sit directly in your line of sight and are perfect for navigation, valuables and small items. Many models feature a map compartment or touchscreen window.
Frame Bags
Space-saving and aerodynamic: frame bags use the space within the frame triangle for tools, pump and energy bars. Especially popular for bikepacking and gravel riding.
Saddle Bags
Compact and unobtrusive: saddle bags are attached under the saddle and provide space for repair kit, keys and small items. From mini saddle bags to bikepacking saddle packs.

At Markenkoffer.de you will find bicycle bags from Ortlieb (Made in Germany, 100% waterproof), Vaude (sustainable, Green Shape) and KLICKfix (patented click system). All three brands specialize in high-quality bicycle bags.
Which bicycle bag is suitable for the commute?
For commuters, we recommend a rear bike bag with 15–25 liters volume. Models like the Ortlieb Commuter-Bag or Vaude Aqua Back offer space for a laptop, change of clothes and provisions – waterproof and with a click system for quick removal at your destination.
Which bicycle bags are suitable for bikepacking?
For bikepacking, you distribute the weight across several bags: saddle bag (clothing), frame bag (tools, snacks), handlebar bag (valuables) and optionally front bags for additional storage.
Are bicycle bags waterproof?
Many high-quality bicycle bags are completely waterproof – especially models from Ortlieb with welded seams and roll closure. More affordable models are often water-repellent and come with a rain cover. For daily commuting in all weather, we recommend waterproof models.
How do I attach bicycle bags to the luggage rack?
Most modern bicycle bags use click systems like KLICKfix or Ortlieb QL – simply hook on and ride off. For older luggage racks, there are universal adapters. When buying, pay attention to compatibility with your type of luggage rack.
How many liters do I need?
For everyday use and commuting, 15–25 liters (one rear bike bag) is sufficient. For weekend tours, we recommend 30–40 liters (a pair of rear bike bags). For bikepacking and bike travel, you need 50–70 liters distributed across several bags.
