Using your Basil Urban Dry double MIK pannier is a breeze. First, attach it to your bike's carrier rack using the pre - assembled MIK mounting plate. Make sure it's securely fastened. You can then load your groceries, accessories, or other items into the bag, taking advantage of its 50 - litre capacity. If you're riding at night, attach LED lights to the mounting options provided for better visibility. When it comes to maintenance, simply wipe the bag down with a damp cloth to keep it clean. Since it's waterproof, it can withstand light rain, but avoid submerging it in water for long periods. Check the adjustable closure and reflective details regularly to ensure they're in good condition. And always store the bag in a dry place when not in use.
