A pannier carrier (23, 23') for bicycles including a frame arrangeable substantially centered with respect to an associated bicycle wheel for supporting carrying bags (70). The frame is formed by a pair of mirror-image open frameworks (26, 26') disposed on respective sides of a turning fork (12) of an associated bicycle (10) for proper distribution of weight. Attachment of these frameworks (26, 26') to the turning fork (12) is accomplished for each of the frameworks (26, 26') by a connecting bracket (42) securable to an apertured lug (22) conventionally provided on each branch (16, 16') of a turning fork (12) of a bicycle (10) adjacent the point of attachment of the axle of the associated wheel (20), and by a standoff (60, 60') which space the frameworks from the associated branches (16, 16') to offset the slant of the turning fork branches. The frameworks (26, 26') can be spread apart and rigidified by a spreader bar ( 76) which can have an article support frame (92) provided at its top portion.
