Which mounting system to choose?

🛠️ Choose Your Mounting System

We believe in giving you the choice. Our panniers are available with two distinct mounting systems to suit your rack and your riding styl. Please read below section to understand differences between them before you make purchase:

Crosso System:
Our classic, indestructible solution. Simple steel hooks and a tension strap. It’s bombproof, easy to repair anywhere in the world, and offers the best price-to-performance ratio. Non-Crosso bicycle racks may require some adapters, which you can find here.

Rail System:
For those who prioritize speed and adjustability. This system allows you to adjust the hook spacing to fit any rack perfectly. It features a locking mechanism that secures the bag to the rack and a comfortable handle for easy carrying off the bike. Fits to 99% of rack available in the market without any adaptors.

CROSSO MOUNTING SYSTEM

Choose the Crosso mounting system if you want panniers that are easy to put on and, thanks to the steel hooks, an almost indestructible mounting system that holds the bike rack very well. Panniers with the Crosso mounting system are also cheaper. Their disadvantage is weight, because steel weighs more than plastic.

RAIL MOUNTING SYSTEM

Panniers with the Rail mounting system can be mounted on bicycle racks with a tube diameter between 8 and 16 mm. After putting on the pannier, the system adjusts itself to the diameter of the rack.

The main advantages of the Rail mounting system are:
✅ smooth adjustment of the spacing of the upper hooks on the rail – in the Click System, adjustment takes place at designated points,
✅ the hook lock has a spring which reduces the play between the hook and the spring with its clamp, so that the pannier sits tightly and does not knock while driving,
✅ the lower hook is adjustable in the horizontal axis and can be rotated around its axis,
✅ easy adjustment to different models of racks,
✅ can be disassembled with a Phillips screwdriver (e.g. for transport),
✅ the top rail is made of aluminum, and the hooks are made of even more durable material than in the Click System,
✅ the eyelets to which the handle is attached are also the attachment points for the strap for carrying the pannier on the shoulderyou can buy it separately;

The adjustable spacing of the hooks of the Rail mounting system makes it suitable for the vast majority of bicycle racks. High-quality plastics and an aluminum rail ensure high durability. This system is equipped with “eyelets” to which we attach a strap to carry the bag on the shoulder. Rail mounting system is the lightest of all we offer – see the table below.
