    I’ve used these pannier hooks for 2 years without incident.

    These enabled me to keep using/repair a saddlebag-style fancy pannier when the center fabric connecting the panniers began to tear. Cost-effective compared to buying new capacious panniers!

    I am not dainty with my pannier loads, hauling lots of stuff every day to commute, plus on a few memorable occasions hauling bags of paver base and gravel. I did not notice any signs of unhappiness from the hooks even when I stuffed the bags with heavy things.

    I always park my bike outside (including when the temperature is negative degrees Fahrenheit), and the elements have not impacted the material at all. The hooks do not seem to be affected by cold or UV, so I expect them to last a very long time.

    Because I have the hooks near the top of the pannier and no hook on the bottom, if my bag sways (for example, taking a corner with a heavy bag), I hear squeaking as the hooks rotate on the rack. This drove me buggy until I realized the cause, then I added a strap to keep the bottom of my pannier from swinging and worried no more. Because these are universal, they don’t absolutely perfectly solidly match my rack tubing, nor are they effortless when I pop my bags off. They’re great for my application, though, holding heavy panniers which I leave on my bike most of the time.

    I’d totally buy these again if I needed to, but they seem to be so robust that I expect these hooks will outlast my panniers.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I’ve been using the Kirk pannier hook for over 3 months now and I couldn’t be happier. It’s extremely easy and straightforward to install and use, making my daily commute much more pleasant. I wish I knew about the Universal Pannier company years ago, it would have saved me plenty of headaches – and sweaty backs!

    The customer service is top-notch. One item arrived slightly defective, but Kyle quickly replaced it at no additional cost. These small touches make a world of difference and make a customer feel truly valued. Highly recommend! Thank you, Universal Pannier!

    I’ve been using them for about a week now on a backpack that I commute into work with and have all positives! The installation was a little tricky because the straps on my backpack were a little thick (make sure to consider that upon location for the holes) but its been secure and working well. I even have to bike over cobblestones and brick roads at parts so the clips are definitely secure! Great product to save me from spending hundreds on a pannier bag or something when I really don’t need them for anything more than saving myself the back sweat on the way to work!

    These little hooks are so cool! I was able to convert my old messenger bag into a computer pannier at less than 10% of the cost and got the satisfaction of reusing what I had. The hooks are easy to install and seem very strong. The 10 mm hooks attach securely to the 10.3 mm top rail of my rack. Communication was outstanding and shipping was very fast.

    These pannier hooks are great! I ordered for two bags one each for my husband and I – with shipping to Canada was just under 50 Canadian dollars. Just under two weeks for delivery (which is normal for Canada).

    I messaged Kyle to ask for some help, and he messaged back really quickly with further info for me. It took about an hour to attach the hooks to both bags (I took a lot of time to make sure everything was right before I drilled holes in our favourite bags!) it went smoothly and now we have fantastic bike bags! The hooks are easy to snap on and hard to get off (which makes me feel confident that they won’t come off during riding) and I can’t wait to try them out when the weather warms up! Looking forward to this years day trips!

    Thanks so much Kyle!

    I have been torn for so long between giving up my favorite bag to make commuting around and to school easier but I really don’t want to stop using it and new pannier gear is expensive! Your product is the perfect solution to modulate any bag for bike mounting.

    I will certainly be getting more products from you when I start using more bags on my bike. Also the color goes perfectly with the theme of my backpack! I was very nervous to put holes in it, but I truly cannot thank you enough I feel so happy with how things turned out!

    Universal Pannier’s unique product solved our problem. It was easy to install and works really well. We’re almost a year into its use and the clips are as sturdy as ever.

    uP’s service was fantastic and you even went as far as upgrading our purchase to the carbon fiber reinforced clips at no additional cost. You also ensured that the package arrived at my door without a hitch.

    A great product and an even better service experience. 100% recommended.

    This is super cool! For the price, these are really worth it! I purchased the Kirk universal pannier hooks because it has two screws and mounts anywhere on my existing backpack, duffle, or even sling bag.
