5-Year Warranty

ORTLIEB-Warranty

The ORTLIEB warranty, limited to five years, is a voluntary warranty provided by the manufacturer. It grants additional rights independent of the rights granted by consumer protection laws. Should a product be replaced within the warranty period, the date of first delivery continues to apply to the five-year warranty period.

This worldwide, free of charge warranty of five years from delivery refers to material defects and processing errors. Scuff marks, holes and cracks caused by the customer's own fault are not covered by the warranty. Claims for defects due to normal wear and tear, improper use, non-observance of the assembly instructions, third-party intervention as well as due to improper storage are excluded. No warranty is given for damage due to improper care and improper use. As a rule, however, such damage can be repaired at cost price.

Consumer Protection Law

Important: The provisions of the ORTLIEB warranty, which is limited to five years, do not apply to claims arising from statutory consumer protection rights. These statutory rights are not limited by the warranty. Thus, the benefits under the five-year limited ORTLIEB warranty are intended to supplement and not replace the rights granted by consumer protection laws.

If a product is defective, consumers may in particular claim the rights under §§ 434 et seq., §§ 474 et seq. of the German BGB (German Civil Code). Consumers can choose whether to claim performance under the ORTLIEB warranty, which is limited to five years, or under their statutory consumer protection rights.

The first point of contact for warranty claims is always the specialist or online dealer with whom the purchase contract for the product was concluded. This warranty is subject to the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Velo-Sling

85 €

The Velo-Sling combines versatility, functionality, and style in a compact shoulder bag that, as the name suggests, can also be attached to your bike handlebars.
With its clever details and high-quality materials, it is perfect for your dynamic everyday life and offers everything you need on the go.
Thanks to the wide and comfortable shoulder strap, the Velo-Sling is comfortable to carry. To keep the strap out of the way when you attach the bag to your handlebars, it can be easily removed or stowed on the bag itself. The two included O-straps and foam spacers ensure that the bag sits firmly and stably on the handlebars. An additional rubber band strengthens the mount, prevents wobbling, and can also be used flexibly to secure other equipment that you want to attach to the outside of the bag.
The Velo-Sling is equipped with various daisy chains for transporting additional accessories. You can attach the included straps here, for example to secure a jacket or other luggage to the bottom of the bag. When the bag is fully loaded, the straps also help to secure the opening or the inside if the roll closure can no longer be closed.
Another highlight of the Velo-Sling is the strong magnetic closure: the magnetic poles find each other almost by themselves, so the bag can be closed effortlessly with one hand – ideal when you only have one hand free. In combination with the robust, waterproof material and the proven roll-top closure, the contents remain reliably dry and well protected, even in inclement weather.
Inside, an additional zippered pocket provides space for valuables or items you want to store separately.
Whether for the commute to work, a stroll through town or your next bikepacking tour – the Velo-Sling is sustainably produced in Germany and is your reliable and flexible companion for all occasions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the Velo-Sling off the bike as well?

Yes, the Velo-Sling is both a handlebar bag and a crossbody bag in one. The wide shoulder strap ensures high carrying comfort and can be removed or stowed directly on the bag body when needed. This keeps you flexible in any situation.

How is the Velo-Sling mounted to the bike?

The Velo-Sling is securely attached to the handlebar using the supplied O-Straps and optional foam spacers. An additional rubber band stabilizes the bag against the head tube and prevents wobbling. Installation is simple and tool-free.

How secure is the magnetic closure of the Velo-Sling?

The magnetic closure of the Velo-Sling not only holds by magnetic force but also clicks into place. This way, the bag almost closes by itself and stays securely shut. Combined with the roll closure, the contents are reliably protected from rain - even at high speeds or in dense city traffic.

Can I attach additional gear to the Velo-Sling?

Yes, you can use the integrated daisy chains to attach the supplied straps. This allows you to fasten items like a jacket or other lightweight gear to the underside of the bag.

Is the Velo-Sling waterproof?

The Velo-Sling is waterproof according to protection class IP64. This rating indicates:

The product is dust-tight and protected against splashing water from all directions. Even in very heavy rain and splashing water, the contents stay perfectly dry. The Velo-Sling is therefore ideal for longer outdoor adventures in stormy conditions.
