Ortlieb Downtown2 QL2.1 Pannier Bag

The classic Ortlieb Downtown Two has been given a new look that is both stylish and businesslike.

In addition to its new appearance, however, this waterproof, modern bicycle briefcase also offers some impressive new functions. For instance, you now need only one hand to open and close the flap. The interior of the Downtown Two is as smartly structured as its exterior, offering a padded compartment for notebooks or tablets of up to 15.6", an organizer with two zippered pockets, a pen holder and a carabiner for your keys. In addition to durable canvas, this popular bicycle briefcase can now also be purchased in wear-resistant Cordura fabric in the colors black and steel blue.

Quick-Lock2.1

The pannier mounting system Quick-Lock2.1 is based on the proven QL2 system, however, several decisive features were considerably improved, especially with regards to racks currently on the market. This optimized system has the following features that distinguish it from others:

Automatic closing and opening of hooks by lifting the pannier handle. When the pannier is lifted by the handle, the two hooks on the reverse side are opened. Then the pannier can be hooked into the rack. Once you let go of the handle, the two hooks close around the rack tube.

16 mm QL hooks with inserts which have an "Anti-Scratch" function for 8, 10 and 12 mm (size 12 mm e.g. required for Racktime racks). In QL2.1, the reductions inserts are now attached from the sides and secured against loss. 20 mm QL hooks are optionally available for racks with larger diameters (17-20 mm) as often used on E-bikes. The upper mounting rail consists of one piece for higher stability. With models Office-Bag and Downtown it can be adjusted to the left or right side of the bike rack. The new assembly system allows the use of extremely flat nuts on the inner side thus featuring a level surface and avoiding damage to whatever you bring along. Optional upgrade with anti-theft device into the upper rail.

The lower hook rail is made of a two-component synthetic combination with "Anti-Scratch" function. This reduces abrasions on the carrier and prevents damage to the rack tubing. The lower hook is rotatable in 15 steps and adjustable in height. Just as in the conventional QL2 system, all hooks are adjustable to the rack without requiring any tools and can be easily exchanged.
