Know before you buy
The bag is designed to attach to both the handlebars and the stem, making it compatible with most standard bicycle setups. Because it uses a universal mounting system, it should fit securely on road, mountain, and commuter bikes alike.
While the bag is constructed from durable ballistic fabric, it is not fully waterproof or submersible. It will protect your items from light splashes and road spray, but you should use a dry bag or plastic sleeve for electronics during heavy downpours.
The 54 cubic inch capacity is compact but efficient, designed specifically for small essentials. You can comfortably fit a smartphone, a set of keys, a wallet, and a few energy bars or a small cable lock.
The bag is designed with a rigid, padded bottom and a dual-attachment system that secures it to both the bars and the stem. This configuration significantly reduces swaying and bouncing, even when you are riding on bumpy terrain or mountain bike trails.
Yes, the bag is positioned right in front of you on the handlebars, making it easy to reach in and grab a snack or your phone while you are moving. However, we always recommend pulling over to a safe spot before accessing your gear to keep your focus on the road.
