Product Information

include electronic cable ports, and closed cell foam on the sides and bottom to protect its contents.

The Garage is a top tube bag with a big capacity, adjustable straps, and a fully seam taped construction. Revelate Designs’ Mag-Tank shares a similar shape, build, and size to the standard Gas Tank top tube bag, but uses a unique two piece hook and latch buckle with mechanical engagement that secures via internal magnets. The daisy chain accommodates different steer tube stacks, the padded body gives it structure and protection, and the zipper glides freely opening to a bright interior. Oveja Negra offers a small Snack Pack that is designed to fit at the sea tube / top tube junction, providing enough room for a spare tube and multi-tool, or a few snacks.

Sturdy Bag Designs is proud to source the majority of their fabrics and components from within Minnesota, and if not, from the United States.

Meanwhile, its heavy duty zip features a dust and grime guard, tested in the desert expanse of the Chihuahua desert, where the bag is constructed. Both feature a YKK waterproof zipper, daisy chain/velcro attachment, a internal plastic stiffener, and can be custom-made with a bolt-on attachment upon request.

Jersey pockets are great, but when you’re spending hours in the saddle and don’t want to feel the weight of two spare tubes and a sandwich pressed against your spine for 50 miles, you can’t beat a top-tube bag. It uses a water repellent YKK zipper, includes a cable port at the front of the bag, and has one large top tube strap as well as a unique cord lock attachment to secure under the stem. There’s still one litre of space available and we had no issues storing multiple gels, a tool, phone and mini pump. This makes the bag very weather resistant, but because the seams are not sealed water will seep in over time and is not considered 100% waterproof.

As well as a good fit and a stiff sole, triathletes also need bike shoes that are easy to get on and off in a hurry. A handy pull tab makes it easy to open and close at speed, while no front strap means you can mount it anywhere on your top tube, and even use it in combination with a smaller pouch strapped to your headset in front of it.

Both the stem and top tube straps are fixed, so make sure to double check compatibility and fit with existing bags before purchasing. It uses a one-finger zipper that’s easily accessed on the move, an internal mesh “anti-rattle” sleeve, and reflective graphics. This, combined with the slimmer design, means we’d expect there to be less of an aerodynamic penalty, although this is purely anecdotal as we can’t back this up with data. The Cache Top Tube Bag is reinforced with stiff foam and is designed for one-handed access for items on the go. Built to last, the Road Runner Bluff Top Tube Bag features a main zippered compartment, inner divider, a velcro head tube strap, and locking top tube straps with a daisy chain along the base of the bag.THREE SECURE VELCRO STRAPS FOR STABILITY ] : The bag is easy to install with adjustable velcro straps. Adjustable Velcro straps are easy to cinch around most frames—I’ve used this pack with a gravel bike, road bike, and a mountain bike with no issues.
