Using your Ortlieb Bike - Packer Plus Panniers is a piece of cake. First, use the QL2.1 system to attach the panniers to your bike rack. Just hook them on, and they'll secure quickly thanks to the self - closing hooks. When packing, use the top area for larger items and the waterproof front compartment for small, frequently - needed things. You can carry just one bag on either side if you don't need both. To carry the panniers off the bike, use the included shoulder strap. As for maintenance, after each use, especially if it's been wet, open the panniers and let them air dry to prevent mold. Check the hooks and the mounting system regularly for any signs of wear. If the fabric gets dirty, you can gently clean it with a mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the PU - laminated Cordura. And remember, the reduction inserts are there to fit different tube diameters, so make sure to use the right ones for your bike rack to prevent scratches.
