Bike pannier (Kendal LA9)
Gifted
Karrimor Bike pannier with roll closure, fits either side of rack. Dimensions of back plate approx. 30 X 30cm (at widest) This is several years old, and the fabric has stiffened slightly, but the seams and hooks are still sound. It was waterproof when bought, and looks as if it still is, although I have not used it for a long time. There is a plastic disc which attaches to the seatstay of the bike and engages with the slots on the back plate, to keep the pannier in place.
