Selling these Carradry panniers by Carradice.
2x 24ltr capacity. Very tough set of panniers that keep your kit dry no matter how heavy the rain. Saw me through some ridiculous weather on my month long ride from John O'Groats to Lands End. No splits/rips. Mounting hooks/clips work as new, as do all zips, buckles and straps. As you will see in the photos... One of the pull cords has been replaced, but everything continues to do what it should. Currently set up for a 10mm rack, but by removing the hook spacers, will accommodate a 13mm rack. Superb set of panniers in very good condition... £60.

Took in another couple of bikes today for renovation and rehoming, of which this is the first to find it's way onto the work stand. Thanks MBB for your kind donation 👍

Sometimes getting from A to B stops being something you get to decide.

Cycling flips that, it puts the choice back where it belongs, in your hands. When you leave, how you move, the route that feels right in the moment.

Just you, moving on your terms.

With tube strikes expected next week and fuel prices continuing to rise, that kind of autonomy matters. Not as a statement, but as a practical response to everyday disruption.

If you’re thinking about cycling, whether for the first time or after a break, our advice pages bring together real-world guidance to help you get started: https://www.cyclinguk.org/advice
