Troubleshooting
Bag feels unstable during riding
Ensure the under-seat strap and all additional fixing straps are tightened securely. Check that the bag is evenly balanced and not overloaded on one side.
Rain cover does not fit properly
Make sure the rain cover is correctly oriented and pulled taut over the bag. Some adjustment may be needed depending on how the bag is packed.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to open/close
Clean the zippers with a soft brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant. Avoid forcing the zippers.
Bag sways or shifts during turns
Re-evaluate strap tension and attachment points. Ensure straps are routed correctly and not slipping. Consider using additional bungees if necessary, but avoid over-tightening which can deform the bag.
