Alberts ECR

Apidura long term test

The main fabric is comprised of four layers and laminated to provide a good level of water resistance. In the areas where the bag is contacting the frame a more heavy duty fabric has been utilized to aide in the longevity of the product. Whilst the majority of the products are not seam sealed we find the use of smaller dry bags are useful for separating gear within them. Their range of rack-less bags will get you exploring beyond your usual horizons.

SADDLE BAGS

There are three sizes of bags and one dry bag. Small 9lt, medium 14lt and regular 17lt. The dry bag is 9 lt.

FRAME BAGS

There is a huge range of shapes and sizes. Small medium and large in both mountain and road fitting as well as complete frame bags.  Pockets on both sides make it easy to compartmentalize and organize your gear. The road bags have a big square edge to accommodate more traditional steel road frames. We have found that sometimes modern carbon road frames are often more suited to the mountain frame bags. Come in to see which one will fit your bike best.
