Last year Oregon-based gravel legends Old Man Mountain Racks approached us wanting to engineer a version of our Micro Pannier to be rock, drop, bump, and jump proof. They’ve been putting this design to the test on the road (and off-road) throughout 2022.
They’ve been on so many awesome adventures that we decided to launch our own version in our classic EcoPak colors. Now is your chance to grab a web attach on pannier direct from the North St. line.
Our new Adventure Edition features a hook & loop attachment system for gravel touring. The heavy duty hook and loop is sturdy enough for hopping rock gardens and taking gravel waves in stride.
These simple side haulers weigh in at a breezy 13.5oz and will stash extra clothing, repair kits, lunch and snacks. Made from a single layer of waterproof sailcloth, the streamlined and simple Micro Pannier features an external zipper pocket for minimalist bikepacking and single track adventures.
Comes with voile strap for bottom-of-rack mounting security.
Trying to decide between the new build and the hook and bungee Commuter edition? Check out this breakdown of the features of each system to determine which is right for you:
When you order your new bike pannier or convertible backpack pannier you’ll need to select the hook size that best fits your bike’s cargo rack. These hooks—two near the top of the pannier—slot over the horizontal tube(s) of the cargo rack and then a bottom hook on a bungee holds tension for a secure fit.
While it’s a simple system, one of the most common questions we get is: what’s the right hook size for my bike? Click to read more.
