Verified Customer Reviews for Oxford Heritage 40 Litre Panniers
Bought these for my Dad's Bonneville Ace Cafe edition and they fit the theme perfectly. We're using the official Triumph pannier racks which these bags interface with great. The shoulder straps for using off the bike are a great idea too. Off to Ireland next week to give them a proper road trip test!
These panniers are well made a good value for money. They have a waterproof lining but I haven't tested them in the rain yet. They are easy to fit to the bike ( I am using them with generic givi pannier supports to keep them from rubbing against the shocks etc). One clip was seized but loosened up easily with lubrication. They have reinforced bottoms but other than that they do not keep their shape well when empty. I have reinforced mine with lightweight plastic to remedy this. Not essential but just a matter of preference.
Panniers are of reasonably good quality and mostly well made. The cloth side of things is good quality thick cotton with a wax like substance permeated throughout so will be shower resistant with a waterproof lining in a nice deep red tone. The outer is very easily marked and mine arrived with quite a few marks already on them and particularly one side where it was folded in packing. I decided against returning as it will do this with age anyway so thought nothing more of it. The buckles are great and will work well when fully loaded. The main issue I found was with the 4 clips to supposedly hold the top once folded to help prevent water ingress which were very poorly made. One clip was completely seized 2 others opened but wouldn't close and one performed as it should once I had used some silicon lubricant on it. The one that was completely stuck took a lot of persuasion to move at all but it is now working but very stiff, the other 2 I have managed to free up and lubricate but still stick open on occasion. Hopefully all 4 will work as expected once it has had some proper use.
Seems to be well made, useful capacity, time will tell on wear and tear. Waterproof lining looks as if it would be up to the job. Loose strap restraints are poor. Looks good and am pleased with the product.
Lovely looking bags, however would improve with leather trimming but still good value for the money
