Premium Waterproof Cycling Gear
Ortlieb Bags & Panniers at Compton Cycles
At Compton Cycles, we're proud to stock Ortlieb, a world-renowned German brand known for its durable, fully waterproof bike bags and panniers. Ortlieb was founded in 1982 by Hartmut Ortlieb, who built the first panniers himself out of necessity - using truck tarpaulin and his mother's sewing machine. Since then the company has grown into a global leader in waterproof bikepacking and outdoor equipment.
Why We Trust Ortlieb
There is a reason you see Ortlieb bags on every serious adventure rig. They are the gold standard for a reason: they are completely, reliably waterproof and built to survive the harshest conditions. While their original, ingenious design has been copied by countless others, the quality of an authentic Ortlieb bag remains unmatched.
Whether you are hauling heavy grocery shopping back from the market or packing all your camping gear for a weekend escape, these bags handle it all with ease. They aren't just accessories; they are essential equipment with a warranty that proves just how much faith the manufacturers have in their gear.
