1 reasons not to buy

An expert says the single strap for keeping the bag closed is insufficient, and the sides occasionally come unrolled. An owner adds that it doesn't cinch tight enough when the bag is partially loaded.

Bottom line

Old Man Mountain's Juniper is a 7L waterproof trunk bag that experts believe is as resilient and durable as the shrub it's named after, but none test it long-term. Installation is easy, and the bag stays secure over rough terrain. There's also enough clearance for dropper seatposts. The roll-top closure is easy to use, but some feel the single strap is insufficient. Overall, the OMM Juniper impresses experts and owners, despite the slightly disappointing closure.

I found that the trunk bag… even though it didn’t hinder the seatpost going up and down, I felt like… when I got back on the bike, it just felt like a gentle little poke in the bum.

The system easily accommodates everything you need and allows a lot of leeway when it comes to arranging your luggage. The Juniper trunk, for example, can be mounted at the front and rear.

… the trunk bag is great and held my sleep pad, an ancient Thermarest one, perfectly with room to spare.

It’s basically a badass grocery bag with a zipper pocket. Cram stuff in, roll it down, cinch it tight.

Old Man Mountain Gravel & MTB Luggage Rack Special

Level 5 expert

The Juniper Bag works excellently as a small additional bag on the luggage rack. The installation via the four straps is significantly easier than with the Ponderosa Panniers, but the bag only holds about half as much.
