Gold Prize
Seat-Pack 16.5L – SRP £135
The spacious, ORTLIEB waterproof Seat-Pack keeps its contents (spare clothes, camp shoes) safe and dry. Depending on how long you plan to be away you can conveniently adjust the volume of your pack from 8 to 16.5litres by adjusting the roll closures on the sides. An additional air-release valve allows you to quickly and easily compress your soft gear for a more compact fit. Attachment is via Velcro straps enabling quick, convenient, and secure mounting to your seat post. Also, the Seat-Pack serves as a rear mudguard - Bonus!

Handlebar Pack 9L – SRP £105
ORTLIEB's Handlebar Pack is an indispensable item when on a bikepacking trip. This 9L version is the smaller of the two models, belonging to the more compact class of bikepacker handlebar rolls. With a length of only 40 cm, this waterproof handlebar bag is the right choice for bikepackers with off-road drop bars and both racing and hybrid-style handlebars. The compact Handlebar-Pack is also extremely lightweight.
Thanks to the roll closures at both ends, you can always gain quick access to your gear. Fitting is via two strong Velcro straps and spacer blocks ensuring secure attachment to any handlebar type, including carbon handlebars. It’s also possible to attach ORTLIEB Accessory-Pack for additional carrying capacity.

Frame-Pack Toptube – SRP £105
The ORTLIEB Toptube Frame-Pack is the smart solution for all who want to use their frame’s main triangle for storage space without having to do without their water bottle. The solution also works for those who have full-suspension mountain bikes with limited triangle space. The Frame-Pack attaches easily to your top tube and seat tube with the help of sturdy and highly adhesive, interchangeable, and individually positionable hook and loop straps. More info here
Silver Prize
Seat-Pack 11L – SRP £125
The spacious, waterproof ORTLIEB Seat-Pack keeps its contents (spare clothes, camp shoes) safe and dry. Depending on how long you plan to be away you can conveniently adjust the volume of your pack from 7 to 11 liters by adjusting the roll closures on the sides. An additional air-release valve allows you to quickly and easily compress your soft gear for a more compact fit. Attachment is via Velcro straps enabling quick convenient and secure mounting to your seat post. This 11L version only requires six cm’s of your seat post for mounting and is ideal for smaller frame sizes, full-suspension bikes, and adjustable seat posts. Plus it still offers mudguard duties in the filth.

Bronze Prize
Accessory-Pack – SRP £55
What should you do with all those small, but important extras on your bikepacking trip? The best place to put your snacks, smartphone, wallet, and other items are in your ORTLIEB Accessory-Pack which fixes to the handlebar via its pre-mounted Velcro straps. It’s also possible to use it as a shoulder bag or hip bag. If you already have a ORTLEIB Handlebar-Pack then you can use the metal hooks to securely attach the Accessory-Pack to the four points of attachment on the Handlebar-Pack to increase your capacity.
