Union 34 cycle rucksack/pannier, missing its hooks (Balsall Heath B13)
Withdrawn
4d
- This is a rucksack that converts to a bike pannier. It has been used once and the eejit I lent it to lost the rack hooks that slide in and out of a slot. So unless you can find a replacement Union 34 fixing or try a fifteen quid Rixen Kaul rail pannier system (ie a thing that converts any bag to a pannier) it only works as a rucksack. Apart from that, perfect condition. It has lots of handy compartments and hooks. Collection from B13 near top of Ladypool Rd. Karen
