What is a bike pannier rack?
For heavier loads or for touring, bike panniers are essential. To use panniers, you'll need a pannier rack that's secured to eyelets on your frame. Luggage racks help to keep your panniers stable and distribute weight safely, keeping you safe and steady on the road ahead.
Before purchasing a pannier rack, make sure it'll fit your bike. If your bike has disc brakes, you'll need a special rack like our Halfords Essentials Disc Brake Pannier Rack. If your bike doesn't have eyelets, you can use a rack that is attached directly to your seatpost to safely carry up to 10kg of luggage. Be careful as seatpost bags can damage fragile carbon seatposts.
