Ortlieb Vario QL3.1 Backpack 20L - Rooibos

Ortlieb Single Bike Bag and Backpack Vario QL 3.1 Rooibos 20L
This black, hybrid bag Vario from the German quality brand Ortlieb is a backpack and single bike bag in one.
The smaller version of the Vario bike bag has a capacity of 20 liters and is made of durable PU-coated nylon material.
The bag is equipped with a roll closure, a laptop compartment, a padded back panel and the user-friendly Quick Lock 3.1 attachment system. The Vario is a practical, multifunctional bag for anyone who goes to work or school by bike.

Bag with laptop compartment and roll closure
The Vario has a spacious main compartment with a large slip pocket (A4 size) with a zip pocket.
The padded slip pocket fits a laptop up to 14 inches.
The bag closes with a water-resistant roll closure with a metal hook.
You can attach this hook in two positions, depending on the amount of luggage. Items that you need quickly on the road can be stored in the zipped pocket in the loose flap.
This zipped pocket is not 100% waterproof.

Waterproof and reflective
To make the bag 100% dust and waterproof (protection degree IP64), the roll closure must be rolled up at least 3 to 4 times.
Reflective features are applied to the sides of the bag for good visibility in the dark.

Backpack and bicycle bag in one
The renewed Vario backpack is equipped with the Quick-Lock 3.1 fastening system on one side and a padded carrying system with adjustable chest strap and ergonomically shaped shoulder straps on the other side. These shoulder straps are finished with reflective yarn.
A flap with an integrated zipped pocket covers the side of the bag that is not being used.
This can be switched sides and is secured with a metal hook.

Quick-Lock 3.1 attachment
You attach this bag with Quick Lock 3.1, a bicycle bag suspension system specially developed for office and city bags by Ortlieb.
An advantage of this system is that there are no annoying hooks on the back of the bag.
You can easily release the bag from the carrier with one hand by pulling the handle and moving the bag to the left or right.
The Vario is supplied with the necessary mounting bolts for luggage carriers with QL3.1-compatible mounting points, such as the Quick Rack.
If you want to use the bag on a luggage carrier without integrated QL3.1 attachment, an additional mounting set that can be ordered separately is required. See the related products at the bottom of this page for this.

Adapters
The QL 3.1 system is suitable for carriers with a tube diameter of up to 10 mm. Adapters for carriers with a tube diameter of 11-16 mm are available separately, see the Related products.

The Vario backpack is also available in a larger size, with a capacity of 26 litres.
