Arkel Seatpacker – Saddlebag

No Side-to-side Movement

The absence of movement is a crucial feature of this design.
The aluminum hanger attaches to two solid points: the saddle rails and the seat post. This sturdy and adjustable system allows a secure and stable attachment to the bike.
Thanks to this hanger, sways or movements are completely eliminated while riding, giving you a confident and stable ride.

Smart Design for Comfort

The solid inner frame insert maintains a lean, narrow shape even when fully packed, ensuring the bag doesn’t interfere with pedaling. The aerodynamic profile prevents your thighs from rubbing against the bag, providing a chafe-free, comfortable ride on long-distance adventures. The flexible seat post mount molds seamlessly to aero posts without risk of damage or denting.

100% Waterproof

The Seatpacker is made with high quality waterproof fabrics like X-Pac X11. The X-Pac fabric is waterproof on its own but the seams can be difficult to seal completely, so to ensure it is completely waterproof, we added an internal waterproof liner as well.

The durable exterior fabric will protect the liner from daily abuse. You may scratch or even tear a hole in the outside fabric, but the waterproof liner will remain intact.

Why this bag is perfect for you

The Seatpacker is a reliable, innovative seat bag system designed to handle any bikepacking adventure without tail wag. Featuring a solid aluminum hanger that attaches to your saddle rails and seat post, this 100% waterproof bag comes in 9L or 15L sizes. The flexible seat post mount adjusts to standard and aero posts without damaging them, and it’s compatible with dropper posts. With a lean, aerodynamic shape that prevents thigh rubbing, rugged construction, and external netting for extra gear, the Seatpacker provides ample storage capacity with maximum stability.
