About this piece

Microwave Panniers are a from-scratch rethinking of the traditional micro panniers. Modular, ultra-secure, truly waterproof, and super light, they are equally suited to riding rough trails as they are to urban living. The two-part system includes a quick-access drybag and a rugged holster that secures to any rack. The stiff, black HDPE back plate uses Voilé Straps® for upper mounting that can’t move in any direction. Five options for lower mounting keeps these totally rattle-free.

About the artist

Greg Hardy is a medical research engineer with a PhD who started Rockgeist in Asheville in 2014 because he loved riding bikes and camping and wanted to work with his hands. The name is German for spirit of the rock — Greg learned to sew while living in Germany.
