My Ortlieb Backrollers have served very well for about 10 years, both in Seattle and in Southern Arizona. The waterproof quality has not deteriorated, and they keep things less dusty around here, too. I have been careful open them and air them out after every use. They have not suffered in the UV intensity here, either. I don't think the mounting has changed. Other than Giles Berthoud, or Rivendell, I can't think think of a better bag. Each is like a very different fruit, a very different kettle of fish, that's all! (On one bike, Baggins, and Ortliebs. on the other bike Ortliebs, and Baggins.)
