ORTLIEB Vario Lite QL2.1 Bike Pannier | Backpack - 22 L - black

A lightweight hybrid of a backpack and a bike bag

The Vario Lite is the ideal combination of a waterproof backpack and a practical bike bag. Thanks to its innovative roll-top closure and Quick-Lock mounting system, it offers maximum flexibility and functionality. Perfect for commuters, touring cyclists, and everyday adventurers. 

With its clever, reversible Powernet flap, the Vario Lite allows for a quick switch between backpack and bike bag modes. The shoulder straps and Quick-Lock system are completely covered, so you can enjoy a clean, uncluttered design in both modes.
This lightweight version of the tried-and-true Vario features tear- and abrasion-resistant nylon fabric, a comfortable carrying system, and a well-thought-out interior layout, including a laptop compartment. A carrying handle and reflectors round out the thoughtful design. 

The Vario Lite is the perfect companion for anyone who doesn’t want to compromise on versatility, comfort, and durability. Whether on your bike or on your back, you’ll always be perfectly equipped with this all-around performer.
Of course, the Vario Lite is also manufactured at our production facility in Germany and developed with the highest standards of repairability in mind.
