Bike Backpacks

Bike backpacks range from 9 to 35 litres. This will cover everything from commuting to work, a quick blast around a trail centre to an overnight biking expedition. Bike bags can be multi activity although many backpacks contain cycle specific features, such as a close fitting back system, waist belt, helmet holder, light fix points, hydration system, tool pockets etc.

A cycle pack needs to fit well. It will be subjected to the rigours of tough mountain trails and as such will get shaken, twisted and covered in rain and mud. A close fitting backpack will minimise imbalance and help you the rider focus on the trail ahead.

Bike bags can be gender specific, the Vaude Flowride 18 is a female specific pack which includes rain cover, helmet holder, padded hip belt, padded MP3 pocket and reflective patches. These bicycle packs are loaded with features, some even contain tool pockets for carrying parts and spares. They need to be tough, fit well and reliable.
