It is designed for cyclists who frequently swap gear between different bikes, offering a secure and stable connection that stays put during intense rides. While it offers unparalleled convenience for quick bag transitions, it is important to note that you will need to purchase an additional base for every bike you intend to equip with a PUSH saddlebag system.

FAQs
Does this work with non-Fidlock saddlebags?
No, the PUSH Saddle Base is specifically engineered for use with Fidlock PUSH series saddlebags.
Can I use this on a carbon saddle rail?
Yes, it is compatible with most standard seat rails, but always tighten with care to avoid overtightening against sensitive carbon materials.
How many bikes can I use one bag with?
You can use one bag with as many bikes as you want, provided each bike has its own PUSH Saddle Base installed.
Is the mount waterproof?
The mount is made of durable materials that are weather-resistant and unaffected by rain or water exposure.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will generally need a standard hex key or screwdriver, depending on the bolt type, to tighten the single mounting screw.
Troubleshooting
The saddlebag does not 'click' into place
Check the mounting area for debris or mud that might be obstructing the magnets. Ensure the base is mounted level and not angled too sharply.
The base feels loose on the saddle rails
Re-tighten the mounting screw. If the rails are thinner than average, ensure the base is seated correctly against the rail curvature.
Pros and Cons

- Minimalist design that is unobtrusive on your saddle

Cons
- Requires a separate base purchase for each individual bike

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the PUSH Saddle Base, position the mount onto the rails under your saddle, align the included mounting hardware, and tighten the single screw securely until there is no movement. It is designed to fit the vast majority of standard bike seat rails. Regarding care, the system is low-maintenance; simply wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth if it becomes dirty from road spray or mud. Periodically check the mounting screw during your routine bike maintenance to ensure it remains tight and has not vibrated loose due to extreme terrain.
