Introducing the Gramm x Allygn Micro Panniers (€289), a low-profile, fork-mounted cargo system that makes every form of bicycle camping easier. Let’s check them out below…
The Micro Panniers are a collaboration between Gramm and Allygn Components and draw on Fern Bicycles’ custom rack designs. Blending touring practicality with ultralight sensibilities, the unique low-profile design enables all kinds adventures without weighing riders down.
The compact system hugs the fork so the bike rides almost like unloaded, and the three-point magnetic attachment holds rattle-free over any terrain for complete peace of mind. 6+ liters of capacity plus overflow meaningfully boost pack volume over an ultralight bikepacking setup, but with low bulk and no sway.
The Micro Pannier’s semi-rigid structure makes for easy packing both on and off the bike, and they maintain their sleek contours regardless of contents, unlike floppy dry bags and panniers. In randonneuring spirit, durable zippers allow one-handed access to snacks and other items while on the go.
Micro Panniers Quick Hits
- Stable and sleek 6+ liter cargo capacity up front
- Micro Panniers securely snap to fork-mounted Micro Racks with FIDLOCK™ magnets
- Available in recycled X-Pac™ RX36 Black and ECOPAK Ultra™ series fabrics
- Sold in pairs and including Micro Racks
The Micro Panniers instantly lock to the Micro Racks’ FIDLOCK™ SNAP magnets, with a pull-to-open Loxx fastener providing redundant security and rapid release. The Micro Racks in turn mount to any three-bolt cargo fork. They pull double-duty with optional straps as minimal standalone carriers, so they are useful even without the Micro Panniers mounting.
The Micro Panniers are available now in highly weather-resistant X-Pac™ RX36 Black (100% post-consumer recycled polyester) and super hard-wearing ECOPAK Ultra™ 200 X Black Magic. They feature a light-colored nylon ripstop liner and an internal divider made from durable ECOPAK UltraStretch™ for organization. Like our other recent releases, our manufacturing partner in Portugal sewn the Micro Panniers in small batches. The Micro Racks are welded from heat-treated 6061 aluminum in Taiwan.
