Make it yours.
Each and every one of us is unique and that is what makes us something very special. We can choose who we want to be and how we want to organize our life. And just as versatile and individual as we are is the range of bike bags from ORTLIEB.
Featuring many new variations and options, and of course as durable and robust as ever.
Combine different bags to match your preferences and create your own individual set-up.
PACKED FOR ADVENTURE.
The new Handlebar-Pack Plus heralds the start and blurs the boundaries between bikepacking and touring. No matter what adventure you may have planned, it’s not a question of which category your bag slots into but whether it suits you and fits in with your ambitions and your adventure. An Ultimate and a Seat-Pack on your bike? Well, why not? If that’s what you want.
Apart from the Handlebar-Pack Plus, there are also some new features for our other bags. Our Ultimates, for example, now boast a new modern design and are also available as a 6.5 L model. The Frame-Pack RC Toptube and the Frame-Pack Toptube have been developed in a new size version and are now available as a 3 L model. Also for smaller frames at last!

Our own athletes are also out and about with the set-ups they have assembled for themselves – adapted to their personal, individual preferences and needs.
This is where you can find the ultimate insights into the equipment chosen by the professionals!
JONAS DEICHMANN
Who are you?
Jonas Deichmann, adventurer and extreme sportsman
What do you do?
In 2017, I turned my passion into my career and since then my life has largely been spent travelling. After establishing various long-distance records on my bike, I completed the first round-the-world triathlon in 2021 and covered 120 times the Iron Man distance. At the moment, I am preparing for my next project.
Where do you travel?
On my bike in the mountains. My favorite region of all is the Andes.
Which ORTLIEB bags do you use?
Seat-Pack, Frame-Pack Toptube, Frame-Pack, Handlebar-Pack, Atrack BP
Why did you opt for this set-up of ORTLIEB bags?
For me the combination of Seat-, Frame- and Handlebar-Pack is unbeatable for bikepacking. It’s the fastest combination and I can usually fit in everything that I need. Sometimes I take the Atrack BP backpack with me when I need more space, such as when cycling to a presentation with my laptop.

GUNNAR FEHLAU
Who are you?
Gunnar Fehlau, addicted to the bike since the mid 1980s, on the road with ORTLIEB bags and active as a hinge between the worlds of bike and media in many situations. Forty-nine years old, married, two grown-up children, ten bikes.
What do you do?
For the year 2023, I have loaded my household and my work material onto an e-cargo bike and am living and working as a digital nomad on the bike and in a tent. Workpacking is the name I have given to this mixture of remote work and bikepacking.
Where do you travel?
Far away from road traffic, gently uphill without any aspirations, downhill as well but then a little more demanding, towards the horizon, living in the here and now, exposed to the weather, experiencing the seasons and full of anticipation; keen to be in company and enjoying the sport yet without any dogged ambitions. Preferably pedaling to appointments with no CO2 footprint due to car, train or plane, experiencing the local surroundings rather than escapist trips to remote destinations. No getaway trips; just excursions to explore what is on the outside and develop what is inside.
Which ORTLIEB bags do you use?
I have six red Rack-Packs (5*34, 1*27 L), a set of Back-Roller High-Vis, the Frame-Pack Toptube and Fuel-Pack, as well as roughly 654657896675 small Dry-Bags to keep things dry and tidy. A 5 L Folding-Bowl and a 5 L Water-Bag round off my ORTLIEB equipment.
Why did you opt for this set-up of ORTLIEB bags?
In 2023, I have a fine mix of the various ORTLIEB product worlds on my bike, because this is my workpacking tour, which demands a range of equipment that cannot really be pigeonholed because it has to cope with the needs of everyday, work and adventure all at the same time.
BELÉN CASTELLO & TRISTAN BOGAARD
Who are you?
We are Tristan and Belén
What do you do?
We are adventure cyclists and photographers/filmmakers.
Where do you travel?
Somewhere with mountains. The view is always better from up high!
Which ORTLIEB bags do you use?
For long adventures, we go for:
25 L Gravel-Packs, 15 L Handle-Bar Pack, 4.1 L Fork-Packs / 5.8 L Fork-Packs, 4 L Frame-Pack RC / 6 L Frame-Pack RC, 3.5 L Accessory-Pack
Why did you opt for this set-up of ORTLIEB bags?
Since we carry quite a lot of electronics and production gear on our tours, we quickly fell for the Gravel-Packs in the bikepacking line. We still want to travel as light as possible, so we choose to spread our weight around the bike, but we consider our style to be a fusion between bikepacking and classic touring.
Tanja & Denis Katzer
Who are you?
We are Tanja and Denis Katzer,
adventurers, journalists, photographers, filmmakers, authors of 15 books and ambassadors for Mother Earth.
What do you do?
Since 1991, we have been on the longest documented expeditionary journey and so far, over the last 32 years, we have covered 464,000 kilometers without any flights. That’s 12 times round the globe, 1.2 times to the moon.
Where do you travel?
In the natural environment, far away from the pressures of everyday life.
Which ORTLIEB bags do you use?
Bike-Packer Plus, Sport-Packer Plus, Rack-Pack, Document-Bag, Atrack 34 L
Why did you opt for this set-up of ORTLIEB bags?
We have been using ORTLIEB bags on our travels and expeditions since 1987 in order to protect our high-end camera and filming equipment from water and dust.
For our purposes, models like the Bike-Packer and Sport-Packer bags are by far the best, most reliable and toughest bike bags in the world. On our bike tours, often lasting months, sometimes even years, we fit in everything that we need and are able to rely on all our equipment being absolutely safe, no matter whether we’re in a rainstorm or blizzard, crossing a river or a desert.
Zoë and Olivier
Who are you?
We are Zoë and Olivier from WeLeaf. We are a couple from the Netherlands (31) and Belgium (35) and full-time adventurers living in Norway.
What do you do?
We seek our dream of “an adventurous life”. Finding a basecamp, and building up an adventurous lifestyle, full of human-powered living and adventures. The adventures can be both small and big, in the garden or far from home. Currently we are cycling in Europe to celebrate the international publication of our book “Leaving the Comfort Zone”. It’s about the first four years of our trip, when we traveled 40,000 kilometers around the world just using human power: by bike, by canoe, on foot, on a sailing boat, skiing and skating.
Where do you travel?
In the “countryside” and “backcountry”, a place where intense cultures and nature often come together or alternate with each other. We enjoy learning from other cultures and the best place to really find strong cultures is still mostly in the small hidden villages far away from the city. Nature is also very precious for us.
Which ORTLIEB bags do you use?
We use many different set-ups, this has mostly to do with all our different travel methods. We also use ORTLIEB a lot while in a canoe, on skates or skiing for example. On the bike we are traditionalists with the classic Back-Rollers, part of our set-up ever since the very first day of adventure. We bought them secondhand and they are still going strong. We have added a Handlebar-Pack where we carry our (often wet) tent. And we have changed to fork panniers. On the back of our bike we carry an empty Atrack which we also use as extra food space. We are not extremely lightweight travelers. For example, we always cook with fresh vegetables, which means we need more space. In the canoe and when skiing, we like to use duffles that can be carried as a backpack. That is also why Olivier is fan of the Atrack daypack.
Why did you opt for this set-up of ORTLIEB bags?
We set off on a world trip without any experience at all. Had no idea what to take, how to pack, etc. We bought two secondhand bikes and a secondhand set of ORTLIEB bags. We have never changed this set-up on the back of the bike because it has worked for us ever since. The fact that we can take less is maybe just good for us, otherwise we would always fill up with a bit more ;)
WHICH SET-UP HAVE YOU OPTED FOR?
Our aim is to allow you to put your own perfect set-up together from all the bags that we have!
Regardless of the colors, materials or lines that you combine – you make it YOUR VERY OWN!
Show us your set-up! Share a picture of your ORTLIEB bike bag set-up on Instagram using the hashtag #makeityours, mark it @ortlieb_waterproof and become part of the community.
CONTROL THE CHAOS!
Incidentally, you can not only put together your own bike bag set-up but also have the option of individually organizing the contents of your bag. After all, there’s nothing more annoying than having to spend ages rummaging through your bag to find the item you need.
The Packing Cubes bring order into your bag!
On trips or in everyday use as inserts for Back-Rollers, Bike-Packers, Velo-Shoppers or Duffles, these inserts bring structure and order into your bag. There are a number of organizational talents to choose from, which can be used alone or in combination with each other.
