I have just purchased two of the big bags from the Hein Gerricke site so they are back up for sale. On the HG site type in the ref number 34312600005 in the top right hand side search bar and they will come up. Both large and small back in stock £5.99 or £4.99 each depending on the size your after

I think I'm right in saying that the bag sizes are shown on the HG site....but can't remember sorry  :-[

Just bought 2 of the small bags for £4.99 each @ HG in Newcastle. They fit snug into the panniers.
By the look of it you could actually get two of them in, one on the inside and one in the lid if they're not bulging to much.

I'm confused me I am. :'(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Are the big HG bags too big for the GTR panniers?!!!!!!!!!!! Or are the small ones too small?!!!!!!!!!!" I'm 64 me ya know "and this confusion is rather upsetting, so can someone tell me in one word which one to buy. Is it answer A Large     or    answer B small.     Keep it simple I've got smoke coming out of my ears already. ::)

Sorry Geoff, but I haven't seen the big bag since they had only the small ones in the shop and thought, 'for that price I just grab a couple'.
They fit as far as height and length are concerned perfectly.
Width wise they fit into the inner part of the pannier without sticking out so even fully loaded you will still have air between bag and lid.
So my best guess is that the 'big' ones are probably a bit wider and fill the whole box when fully loaded.

The big ones are back in stock. Just ordered.

Kin ell!!!!!!!!! I'm going crackers here.  :o     SO          do the LARGE bags fit inside the GTR panniers when they are full.   An answer to the question would be very nice BEFORE I reach my 65 th  birthday. Please be quick as I am slowly losing the will to live. :'(

I have no idea. I'm hoping the larger ones will fit. The post below suggests it us the larger ones.

Well looking at the dimensions the big bags may even be a bit too big (50x30x20) for the GTR standard panniers compared to the small ones (43x26x14) which fit nicely but obviously lack in width. The volume of the big bag is also nearly twice that of the small one (30l v 15.5l).
So I can imagine the big bag will be at least a tight squeeze when fully loaded, if you can get it in there at all.

Thanks Gerd!!!!!!!!!!!! So what we need to know now is  has anyone got one of the LARGE  HG bags filled it full of underpants and other stuff till it is full and then tried to insert it into a GTR pannier and close the lid. I now feel weak I'm sinking fast, is there no hope. SOS. :'(

;D  ;D  I do sympathise.

I checked the sizes on the HG website and because the Larger bags weren't available at the time and because I thought that the smaller ones would soon be unavailable, I went ahead and ordered the smaller ones, working on the principle that they will at least fit in the panniers.

I haven't received them as yet so don't know how well they fit in relation to the panniers

I bought them in store and so far only put them in empty and they fit perfectly as far as length and height are concerned. So I can't see how bags that are 7cm longer and 4cm higher would fit in there without squeezing them.
AFAIK 50x30x20 is the maximum size for hand luggage on most airlines. I have such a trolley-bag and it definitely won't even fit into the 46l topcase!

Do they do a medium size especially for our members who are 64 to calm them down?  ;D
