Hey, I was wondering if you all had any recommendations for panniers. I was planning on mainly using it for commuting (I use a leather brief case now) and relatively small grocery/store runs. It’s pretty rainy where I live so I was thinking something more waterproof. I’ve been reading the wirecutter, etc reviews but it seems kinda hard to narrow down for a first time buyer

Additionally can I get away with just one or do you really need two for balance issues?

Thanks!

    I got a Ibera rear rack on Amazon “used very good” for $26. It was perfect, no missing parts. Still some available at this price as of posting. Also got a Rhino Walk pannier on Prime day for $44. Not sure how often they go on sale. I’ve seen them used for backpacking and touring by a lot of people. I’m very happy with it, waterproof, good quality, good finish.
