FAQs
What kind of items can fit in the 0.7-litre capacity?
The 0.7-litre capacity is suitable for essential small items such as a multi-tool, spare inner tube, tire levers, CO2 cartridge and inflator, or a small energy bar.
How waterproof is the bag?
The bag is fully waterproof and is IPX6 rated, meaning it can resist high-pressure water spray. It also features welded seams for enhanced protection.
Will this bag fit on my specific type of saddle?

How do I secure the bag properly?
Attach the elastic strap around the saddle rails and secure it with the clip. For optimal security, ensure the strap is taut and the bag is snug against the saddle.
Can the bag's capacity be adjusted?

Troubleshooting
Bag feels loose under the saddle
Re-adjust the elastic strap, ensuring it is pulled taut around the saddle rails and securely clipped. Check for any debris that might be preventing a tight fit.
Contents are not completely dry after a very heavy downpour
Ensure the roll-top closure is properly secured by rolling it down at least three times before clipping. Check the welded seams for any visible damage. For extreme conditions, consider using a waterproof inner liner for extra protection.
Strap shows signs of wear
Inspect the elastic strap regularly. If significant wear or stretching is observed, consider replacing the strap or the bag if it compromises security.
