Ortlieb Back-Roller Free

ORTLIEB Back-Roller Free QL3.1 – Clean, Durable, and PVC-Free

The Back-Roller Free takes everything that made the Back-Roller Classic a favourite for millions of riders—and gives it a PVC-free upgrade, without compromising durability or waterproof performance.

Made from tough, waterproof polyester fabric with the same iconic tarpaulin look, this pannier is built to go the distance. A hermetic roll-top closure keeps your gear dry and secure, no matter the weather. And now with Quick-Lock 3.1 mounting, it’s easier and faster than ever to hook and unhook your bag from your rack—no awkward clips or fiddling.

The sleek QL3.1 design keeps hooks off the bag, making it more comfortable to carry off the bike. A structured interior with mesh zip pocket keeps things tidy, and optional accessories like Packing Cubes or the Commuter Insert add even more function for daily use.

About Us

Though we’re a bike shop that sells, builds and fixes bicycles, they’re really just the means to an end; albeit a beautifully designed means to an idyllic end. Our job most importantly is to encourage as many people as we can to get out and ride for transport and enjoyment. We'd love to make riding a bike as commonplace as your morning cup of coffee, which by the way is our other obsession.
