Abstract
A bicycle pack, such as a pannier bag, adapted to be releasably secured between spaced, fixed positions on a bicycle, such as to a bicycle carrier, the pack including fasteners thereon for engagement with one of the bicycle attachment positions, and, at the spaced position on the pack, resilient members secured to the pack and adapted to engage the other of the mounting positions on the bicycle. The pack is constructed of pliable material and includes a pair of spaced rigid members positioned at the two attachment positions of the pack with each rigid member extending substantially transversely to the direction in which tension is induced by the resilient member when attached to the bicycle, whereby, the pack may be compactly compressed, and 'stuffed' into another pack for transport apart from the bicycle, while still maintaining the ability to be attached to the bicycle and provide a wrinkle free, functionally rigid wall member of pliable material between the two spaced rigid members.
