Could I hold standard sized school books in there?

Yes, but these are unstable and fall apart quickly. Save up for nicer ones.

Yes. I typically carry various bike gear and a pump, a bag of extra clothes, and sometimes also notebooks or extra shoes without trouble. It seems pretty durable and doesn't bulk out too much with the additional stuff.

Yes you could fit regular size schools books in, but you do have to balance the weight on both sides. It's slips to one side if you only put something in one side.

Yes, you should have no problems. The BVs are quite roomy. We ordered a couple of sets for a 350 mile bike tour from PA down to DC along the GAP and C&O.; They held up just fine hauling gear for a couple of Boy Scouts. Took a chance with the less expensive panniers, and thus far it has paid off.

As far as falling apart as one person posted, i feel they are well made and have held up very well in my daily usage. Can't beat the price and good quality from my experience.

Unfortunately, I would say no. Although a couple standard-sized school books would definitely fit, the pannier is not that sturdy ... the only reinforcement is a piece of cardboard that is sewn into the fabric that comes in contact with the wheel well.

There is plenty of room for multiple books, magazines and bicycle supplies as well. These bags are great for daily commutes and weekend excursions!

it would hold books, although you would have to allow for the height of each book between the shelves .. it's sturdy enough ..

Short answer : Yes. There is not a lot of room in the top compartment but you should be able to fit 2-3 books in the front section and more in the rear section which runs down the length of the pack or you can put an ipad or small laptop in there.

Yes, I think it would hold a few large text books or several smaller ones. It is a large bag with a good amount of space inside.

No. It can hold only light items. It could hold paperback books, for example, but not hefty textbooks. When I tried to use the shelves this way, they out and stripped the supports in such a way as to be no longer usable. A full size printer would be too heavy.

Ummm, I'm going to say yes. Maybe not side by side perfectly and tidy... Depending on what you're going for, and the size, you could probably fit three in randomly. I use mine for kids books. They're a little flimsier than the thick iron ones you'd see at Lowes or Home Depot. But it does the job for the price! :)

It would fit one shirt nicely, possibly 2 really crammed; I put one 'oversized' book in mine, one that won't fit in a 9 x 12...it could hold 2 'normal' sized books, 5x7 or a little bigger, but not much

Yes, it would probably be fine. I have some books and things, but not too heavy. My biggest problem with the unit is that it kind of sways from side to side. The doors didn't fit well, so I have some shims underneath one side to stablize. They are hidden, but without them, the doors are not aligned. Hope this helps!

There are holes in the sides which enable you to space the shelves how you want to. I think textbooks would fit fine.

My son, in High School, said no. Not enough room for textbooks unless you don't have to carry them back and forth.

Yes. The 2 main pockets can hold a full size atlas. I store a full size clip board and notebooks sideways. The Atlas would stick out the top most likely, but would be secure.

I can fit a binder and some books in the unit no more than 3 to 4 depending on the thickness

Sure. It has flexible flat wire arms that hold the book. It will be bigger than the book but it will work fine.

No that's ok. I now keep my high school year book in it it fits perfectly. Thanks for the comeback.

Meh, only if you really stuff it, then you can maybe fit one text book in there. I can only fit like a five subject notebook, MacBook Pro, and some random supplies in there; a textbook (at least my huge science textbooks) do not fit in there easily with my other things.

Note sure how many books you have. It can certainly handle at least a 15" laptop and a few more books easily. I actually returned it because it was too large for my needs. Sorry about the delay in responding.

It's big enough enough for 3 medium sized textbook, along with a mini computer, an one inch binder and 2 notebooks all together. It may look small, but it sure can fit!
