Your cart is empty.The billboard Dutchy pannier is an easy access “trunk” for your bicycle. Modeled from the proven Dutch-style bike panniers, these bags will turn your bike into a grocery hauling machine. This pannier incorporates a universal mount system that easily fits any rack. When you reach your destination, the bags can be removed and used as totes to transport your belongings with a haul handle or a strap. They are made from upcycled billboards and banners from all over the United States.

We have two pairs, one for each of our two 20" folding e-bikes. These a perfect for our weekly grocery shopping (one bag of groceries per pannier) so we can easily carry four bags home (we can also add a few more on top with a cargo net in a pinch). We like that they fold up against the bike when not in use. We purchased them in pairs so we got "matching" sets -- they look great - it's fun to see what you're going to get! Only negatives: straps do not clip/unclip, so they can get in the way loading the pannier. Internal pocket would be more useful if it was shaped to expand at the bottom. Metal hooks are durable, and can be bent/shaped to fit the rack - they, and the bungee hook to keep the panniers from swinging out, are fine, but require some fiddling to secure the bags to the bike -- could be better.

I've recently been fixing up my whole new commuter bike setup. Didn't realize panniers could be so pricey! But I went with this one to support something made in the US and because I liked the ethos of reusing old banners and stuff.In terms of utility, it's great. A medium sized bag, very sturdy, flattens well for when it's empty, quick and easy to clip on the cargo rack. Come with shoulder strap and an inner divider pocket (probably ideal for slotting in your laptop or something like that). Maybe an extra small pocket or something would've been nice for smaller items, but otherwise I like keeping it simple as it is.The best but also kind of a gamble part is the design. If you're really particular about the "look" of your setup, then maybe not ideal, but I trusted 'em. I got an interesting cartoony castle with pine tree thing. I wasn't sure exactly how I felt about the castle 😅 but I liked the pine tree. And I covered the castle with stickers anyways, like I do with all my stuff cause at my heart I'm still a 13-year-old girl, apparently.

I have this pannier as well as the Green Guru Free Ryder 22L (ASIN: B00SA2ZU0U) and love them both. They have been durable, rain or shine, and each has it's purpose. The Dutchy is great for throwing stuff in, and is best for possible rainy weather with the flap. The Free Ryder is perfect to just put a bag, grocery or otherwise, or even a backpack, directly into and you are good to go. I was concerned that the bag might pop out on larger bumps, but so far, all has been great. I have a non-trivial bike commute to work, but the panniers have made the ride a pleasure without having a backpack on my back. Now I can just put the backpack in the Free Ryder and off I go! My better half often takes the other pannier while bike commuting too. We might be getting yet another in our future. The upcycling and colors are fantastic, and are quite the conversation starter with others. I happen to know that the billboard material on ours happens to be from an old "SNIGRAB" billboard, which was a huge event in days gone by around Denver, CO. So glad some people are thinking of ways to use this stuff!

Dimensions 13 inches wide, 7.5 inches deep, 11 inches tall.Unfortunately I received a bag blatantly advertising alcohol. Not a great look for my work commuting bike - I had to return. It's a simple bag, but fits my needs because quickly folds flat so I can park in the very tight bike rack at work. The clips onto the bike rack do not lock in any way, but was planning on zip-tying it anyway

I've been using these bags on my e-bike for a few months now. I keep them on my bike all the time, but they stay folded up in the back when not in use. There is a heavy velcro tab that keeps them in place.The straps on the back are adjustable so as to keep the panniers tight against the bike to prevent them from clattering about. Like the velcro, the attachment straps seem to be pretty sturdy, along with the metal hooks and elastic pieces that complete the attachment mechanism. I plan on bringing the bags in for the Michigan winter months as I doubt that the elastic will survive the extreme weather of winter.The cutting board in the bottom of the bag is a thick, solid, yet light weight plastic that supports some pretty heavy loads. I have used these bags on grocery shopping runs. I take them off and carry them into the store and attach them to the shopping cart. Then, leaving the plastic/paper bags alone, I load the groceries directly into the panniers. I've filled two panniers (one on each side of my bike) with groceries (think canned goods, bottles of wine, milk, produce) and they don't really seem to strain under the weight.Although the main compartment material is waterproof (seems like a plastic impregnated canvas), I wouldn't call the whole bag waterproof. The top of the bag simply folds over and velcro closed. There is some overlap of the top over the sides AND there are additional flaps that protect the top along the sides, but I'd guess that a strong wind/rain could push some water into the bags. I've used them while riding in the rain and haven't had water get into the bags myself, so all-in-all they're pretty water resistant.You've probably already picked up on this, but the photo of the product is just and example of what the bag COULD look like. But this is a pannier made re-purposing material from advertising signs. So one of my bags is red and white with only pieces of a few words scattered across them. The other one is super-awesome IMO. It was made from a well known craft beer company.All in all, I couldn't be happier with these. They are very well made; I love the repurposing of materials that would otherwise end up in a land fill. They are sturdy and fit well on my bike!
