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.

A pannier bag comprising: a bag structure having a rear wall of pliable material; upper attachment means adapted to be operably connected to a bicycle structure the upper attachment means being positioned at the upper portion of the rear wall of the bag structure; lower attachment means adapted to be operably connected to a bicycle structure, the lower attachment means being positioned at the lower portion of the rear wall of the bag structure; tension means to induce a tension in the rear wall of the bag structure between the upper attachment means and the lower attachment means, and further being adapted to operably connect one of the upper attachment means and lower attachment means to the bicycle structure; upper rigid means positioned adjacent the upper attachment means and extending transversely across the rear wall of the pannier bag; and lower rigid means positioned adjacent the lower attachment means and extending transversely across the rear wall of the pannier bag; whereby the tension means, when the pannier bag is attached to the bicycle structure, induces an even tension between the upper and lower rigid means thereby tensioning the portion of the rear wall of the pannier bag therebetween to a flat, functionally rigid wall structure.
