The essence of bikepacking is carrying everything you need and going anywhere you're able on two wheels. Developing out of lightweight bike touring on rough roads which broke a traditional pannier system, all bikepacking bags are designed to carry your kit in a lightweight and succinct way without much of a need for extra frames and attachment points.
A solid saddle pack is an essential part of your packing system. Use it for your clothes and equipment on long distance rides, or even to hold your warm jacket when you know you'll stop for food on a weekend out-and-back.
The Expedition Saddle Pack is waterproof, lightweight and spacious. Topping out at 9L capacity, this bag is a great option for those with a smaller frame. You've still for the opportunity for a bungee system on top to hold your rain jacket, extra snacks, or anything you'll need quickly.
Built from a lightweight laminate developed specifically for Apidura, the saddle bag is highly resistant to abrasions and tears. The seams have been welded together, creating a waterproof seal that ensures contents always stay dry, even in sustained rain. The bag is still compressable with a hands-free air release valve built in. A two-point attachment system with a Hypalon-reinforced velcro strap allows the saddle bag to hug the seat post, increasing stability and cutting down on lateral movement. Additional Hypalon on the bag’s body keeps frames in good condition. Finally, reflective graphics and a light attachment points give increased visibility, helping to keep you safer on the road.
Apidura is the best name in the bikepacking bag business. You'll not regret the investment in this extremely durable and robust piece of kit.
