The Ortlieb Vario Lite 22L is the lightweight version of the German brand’s famous hybrid model. Designed for urban cyclists, cycle commuters and everyday adventurers, it combines the practicality of a waterproof bike bag with the comfort of an ergonomic rucksack.

Its reversible Powernet flap allows you to switch quickly from rucksack mode to pannier mode, whilst elegantly concealing the shoulder straps or mounting system for a sleek design.

Thanks to the Quick-Lock 2.1 system, fitting to the luggage rack is quick, secure and tool-free. Its roll-top closure and IP64 rating ensure excellent protection against rain and dust.

Inside, a dedicated compartment protects your laptop, whilst the zipped outer pocket provides quick access to your essentials.

Lightweight, robust and made in Germany, the Vario Lite 22L is the ideal companion for all your bike journeys.
