A front wheel side luggage carrier (1) for bicycles comprises a strut arrangement (4) having two struts (7, 8), which when in the position of use extend substantially vertically and approximately parallel to a plane that intersects the front axle of the bicycle at right angles, and having an upper and a lower attachment arrangement (5, 6). Via these arrangements, the side luggage carrier (1) is secured to adjacent legs of the front wheel fork (2) at two points, one of which is located near the front axle and the other is spaced apart therefrom. In order to provide a simple structure, which even under adverse conditions will not tend to vibrate during the ride and which will be largely independent of the shape of the front wheel fork (2), the two vertical struts (7, 8) are joined integrally together at their lower end by means of a connecting cross portion (11), which bears the lower attachment arrangement (6). At their upper ends, the two vertical struts (7, 8) are bent toward one another, forming two transverse bent-over portions (23, 24) in alignment with one another, which in turn are bent at their free ends, forming two support struts (27, 28), towards the lower attachment arrangement (6) on which the support struts (27, 28) are anchored. The upper attachment arrangement (5) is provided on the support struts (27, 28).

Bicycle luggage carrier frame, particularly lateral pannier-type frame, for lateral attachment to a front wheel fork of a bicycle which, upon attachment to the front wheel fork, extends laterally and effectively vertically parallel to the front wheel of a bicycle, comprising a pair of approximately vertical, spaced struts (7,8) located in a plane essentially parallel to the plane of rotation of the front wheel of the bicycle; a cross portion (11) unitary with each of the approximately vertical struts (7, 8) extending from a bottom portion of the struts towards each other; and upwardly extending projecting portion (12, 13) unitary with each of the cross portions, and extending upwardly between said approximately vertical struts (7,8); a lower attachment arrangement (6) secured to the upwardly extending portions (12, 13) and attaching said upwardly extending portions together, said attachment arrangement being adapted for attachment at the lower end of the front wheel fork (3) of the bicycle, whereby said generally vertical struts, said cross portions (11), said upwardly extending portions (12,13) and said attachment arrangement form an essentially W-shaped frame, the lower attachment arrangement (6) being located adjacent the highest point (14) of the upwardly extending portions (12, 13); bent-over essentially horizontal portions (23, 24) unitary with said approximately vertical struts joined to upper portions of the approximately vertical struts (7,8) and extending towards each other; an upper attachment arrangement (5) secured to the upper portions of the struts (7,8) in the region of said essentially horizontal bent-over portions (23,24) for attachment to an upper portion of the wheel fork (2) of the bicycle; and downwardly directed support strut portions (27,28) unitary with said essential horizontal bent-over portions (23,24), each downwardly directed support strut portion being bent downwardly from the respective essentially horizontal bent-over portion (23, 24) and terminating in a free end, said free ends extending towards the lower attachment arrangement (6) and being secured thereto.
