The Packtasche. A Convenient Lightweight Inexpensive Recyclable Cardboard Pannier Bag For Cyclists...

A nice idea from Viennese Architecture students Philipp Moherndl and Matthias Lechner.
Pannier bags are great, but they're expensive and people are nervous about leaving them on their bikes because they might get stolen

The Packtasche is a pair of cardboard panniers that you can fold up in seconds, use for shopping with its convenient handle, and put on your bike. We wanted to make it as smooth as possible to switch from being a pedestrian to getting on a bike, says Matthias, you can stop at the supermarket or in front of the store, go inside, get a Packtasche, do all your shopping in it, put it on your rack, and you're good to go.
And if it rains...
