The 100% waterproof Backcountry Pannier Kit with Euromount frames that mount directly to BMW OEM racks.

We designed the 100% waterproof Backcountry Pannier Kit for transcontinental adventure touring, enduro-style riding, and camping from the bike. Professional guides, instructors, and round-the-world riders have tested and proven this system over the last ten years. The latest version gets a range of design improvements and more eco-friendly recycled materials combined with a quick-mount system that takes seconds to get the panniers on and off the bike.

The Euromount frame option allows BMW GS/GSA owners to install our Backcountry Panniers directly on OEM Touratech-made BMW racks, making it easy to switch between Backcountry Panniers and OEM-mount hard boxes.

This kit eliminates the need for adapters and our regular frame and wedge mounting system. The Backcountry Pannier Euromount Kit arrives pre-configured for direct mounting to your OEM BMW rack right out of the box, no tools required.

The Euromount frame option replaces our standard frame and wedge mounting system with a laser-cut stainless steel frame that mounts directly to BMW OEM rack frame ramps. Once mounted, the Euromount latches and locks into place using a glass-reinforced nylon cam lever equipped with a keyed lock for added security.

We created the Backcountry Pannier because we were tired of over-the-seat soft panniers that flop around in rough terrain, have no external pockets or stash spots, disintegrate after a couple of crashes, and are a total pain in the ass to get on and off the bike. We wanted something like a backpacking frame pack that mounts on your bike, stays connected to the bike, and stays waterproof no matter how many times you lay the bike down.

The Backcountry's are super easy to click on and off the bike, and because the waterproofing is accomplished inside the bag (thanks to the two-bag system), minor external crashes and scuffs won’t faze your panniers at all. Thanks to the thick, welded seam internal liner, you’re also protected from internal abrasion: for example, tools, a camp stove, or some other hard piece of gear vibrating and rubbing against the inner surface over a long period of time.

The Backcountry is heavier than a traditional over-the-seat saddlebag. What you get for that weight is bomb-proof construction and materials, a completely stable mounting system (no flopping), and lots of stash spots. Lighter is not always better if it comes at the price of functionality or durability. If you’re really serious about weight, we recommend our lighter, minimalist Alpine Pannier Kit; or, take off your racks (shaving 8-10 pounds off the bike) and get a Reckless 80L or Reckless 40L.
