Follow this compatibility advice to ensure the best possible fit for your saddle pack:

If possible, rotate the seat post collar so the bolt is on the opposite side of the seat post to the saddle pack. This will reduce wear and tear on the pack.

Measure the vertical distance from the bottom of your saddle rails to the top of your rear tire.

Measure the vertical distance from the seat post collar to the saddle clamp.

The minimum required distances are indicated on the diagram.

FAQs

Will this saddle pack fit my bike?

Our saddle packs are designed to fit most standard bikes with two saddle rails. To ensure a perfect fit, each pack requires a minimum amount of exposed seatpost and clearance above the rear tire. You can find the exact measurements and requirements for each size in the Compatibility section on this page.

Can I use a rear bike light with a saddle pack?

While saddle packs can reduce available space, our packs are designed to accommodate rear lights:

- Integrated Mounting: our Expedition Saddle Pack features an integrated 3-prong mount for direct attachment to the pack.- Clip-On Lights: our Racing and Backcountry saddle packs feature built-in mounting points for the attachment of clip-on rear lights.- Seat Post Mounted Lights: if you prefer a seat post mounted light, it may be possible if you have enough exposed seat post below the pack. Check the relevant pack specifications for exact sizing information.

Does the pack come with a strap for the lash tab?

No, the pack does not include a strap. The lash tab is designed as an overflow attachment point and requires an additional strap to secure gear.

The lash tab is 20mm in width and fits standard Voile straps or other suitably sized velcro straps.

How does the SoftVent Air Valve work?

Our SoftVent Air Valves allow you to compress your gear without the bulk or fragility of traditional hardware. Instead of a plastic purge valve, the SoftVent system is built directly into the pack's fabric layers, allowing trapped air to escape when you roll or compress the bag.

Do you offer free shipping?

Free shipping is available for select international destinations. To confirm if your country is included and to view the minimum order requirement, please consult our Shipping Information page.
