If you’re planning a big day on the bike, you’ll want to keep those small but important extras close at hand, from snacks and energy gels to your smartphone. The solution is Ortlieb’s awesome Fuel Pack. Designed to be fixed to the top tube of your bike, it’s a rigid bag made from weatherproof PU-coated nylon. A practical flip-up magnetic lid closure means it can be easily opened and closed with one hand. An easily accessible outer mesh pocket allows for efficient organisation. It also has a clever integrated cable outlet that allows you to charge a device mounted on your handlebars during the ride.
Life in the great outdoors is unpredictable, which is why it’s wise to be prepared. Basically, if your adventure goes from dry to downpour, you want your kit to stay safe and protected. Ortlieb’s durable, waterproof bike bags and backpacks are the ideal solution.
The first Ortlieb bag was invented in Germany in 1981, after founder Hartmut Ortlieb got back from a very wet bikepacking adventure in (you guessed it) Southern England. Inspired by tarpaulins he’d seen lashed on the truck beds of lorries, he fashioned a pair of bike panniers from red truck tarp, which he stitched at home on his mother’s sewing machine.
A year later he founded his own company, buoyed by early success and positive feedback from friends. In the following years, young Hartmut came up with a series of innovations that would define the modern drybag, using high frequency welded seams and roll-top closures. He even developed the first self-locking mounting system to attach panniers to bike frames.
Today, Ortlieb remains the first and most trusted choice for adventures and expeditions on land or sea – a brand name synonymous with waterproof protection and super-tough, outdoor-ready gear.
