VELOCITY
5-Year Warranty
ORTLIEB-Warranty
The ORTLIEB warranty, limited to five years, is a voluntary warranty provided by the manufacturer. It grants additional rights independent of the rights granted by consumer protection laws. Should a product be replaced within the warranty period, the date of first delivery continues to apply to the five-year warranty period.
This worldwide, free of charge warranty of five years from delivery refers to material defects and processing errors. Scuff marks, holes and cracks caused by the customer's own fault are not covered by the warranty. Claims for defects due to normal wear and tear, improper use, non-observance of the assembly instructions, third-party intervention as well as due to improper storage are excluded. No warranty is given for damage due to improper care and improper use. As a rule, however, such damage can be repaired at cost price.
Consumer Protection Law
Important: The provisions of the ORTLIEB warranty, which is limited to five years, do not apply to claims arising from statutory consumer protection rights. These statutory rights are not limited by the warranty. Thus, the benefits under the five-year limited ORTLIEB warranty are intended to supplement and not replace the rights granted by consumer protection laws.
If a product is defective, consumers may in particular claim the rights under §§ 434 et seq., §§ 474 et seq. of the German BGB (German Civil Code). Consumers can choose whether to claim performance under the ORTLIEB warranty, which is limited to five years, or under their statutory consumer protection rights.
The first point of contact for warranty claims is always the specialist or online dealer with whom the purchase contract for the product was concluded. This warranty is subject to the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany.

The best products don't follow trends. They earn their place through years of real-world use.
The VELOCITY is not a backpack created to fit a moment. It is the evolution of a proven concept. Its roots go back to the ORTLIEB Messenger bags worn daily by professional bike couriers since 1992. Through decades of intensive use in cities such as Berlin, London, New York and Tokyo, those bags became more than equipment. They became part of urban cycling culture. That same DNA defines the VELOCITY today.
The large waterproof main compartment, streamlined design and fast roll-top closure are directly inspired by the practical needs of riders navigating the city every day. A dedicated attachment loop allows a bike light to be mounted for additional visibility in traffic. Refined with a dedicated laptop compartment and a comfortable carry system, the VELOCITY moves effortlessly between commuting, work and everyday life.
Its spacious interior makes transporting larger items easy. A reinforced base with protective feet helps the bag remain upright when loaded, while the robust constructionprovides the stability needed to maintain its shape year after year.
Comfort is equally functional. A detachable sternum strap and removable hip belt allow the fit to be adapted to different riding styles and carrying needs.
Every detail is designed with longevity in mind. The shoulder straps, hip belt and sternum strap components can be replaced when needed. Because these parts are screwed to the main body, repairs are straightforward and spare parts can be fitted easily.
Made in Germany from robust materials and supported by ORTLIEB's repair service, the VELOCITY is designed to remain in use for many years rather than be replaced after a few seasons.
A backpack shaped by genuine courier heritage and refined for everyday life.
