Cyclite Frame Bag Large / 02 3.6L

The Cyclite Frame Bag Large / 02 is the high-capacity version of the flagship frame bag from German brand Cyclite. With a capacity of 3.6 litres and weighing just 214 grams, it is designed for cyclists looking to maximise their range without sacrificing lightness, or cluttering the frame triangle to the point of losing space for a water bottle. The central positioning of the load improves the bike’s balance and minimises aerodynamic drag, two factors that make all the difference over long distances.

The proprietary material LiteGrid-RN200T3 is at the heart of Cyclite’s value proposition: a 200D recycled nylon (PA/N6.6) woven in ripstop, coated on both sides with TPU/PU3 and assembled using high-frequency welding. The result: a waterproof, abrasion-resistant and easy-to-clean pannier, without the extra weight of traditional technical fabrics. Waterproof zips and a large integrated reflector complete a design intended for use in all weather conditions.

The interior is divided into two large compartments (top and bottom) separated by a removable divider, complemented by two internal mesh pockets, a key hook, and a side pocket for valuables (bank card, ID, cash). A protected cable/tube port at the front allows for the discreet routing of a GPS power cable or a hydration tube. The bag is available in two colours: light grey and black, and forms part of the Frame Bag / 02 range, available in sizes Small, Medium, XT, Large and Full Frame.

Compatibility guide:

The Cyclite Frame Bag Large / 02 is compatible with the vast majority of road and gravel frames featuring an open triangle. Two conditions are necessary for optimal fitting:

- The distance between the head tube and the seat tube must be at least 44 cm.
- There must be sufficient space under the top tube to accommodate the bag without interference with the knees or cables.
- On smaller frames, check the available space before ordering: Cyclite offers a 3D visualiser on its website to view the result on your frame.
- Despite its Large size, the bag’s design allows space to be retained for a water bottle in the triangle, even on smaller frames.
- Compatible with hydration tubes thanks to the protected cable/tube port at the front.

FAQ

1. Is the Frame Bag Large / 02 suitable for my frame if I have a small frame size?

Yes, provided the distance between the head tube and the seat tube is at least 44 cm. For very small frames below this measurement, there may not be enough space. Cyclite provides an augmented reality 3D visualisation tool on its website so you can check the fit on your own bike before purchasing.

2. Can I still carry a water bottle with this bag in the frame triangle?

Yes. This is precisely one of the distinguishing features of the Frame Bag Large / 02: despite its 3.6-litre capacity, its design allows for a water bottle to be carried in the frame triangle, even on smaller frames.

3. Is the bag truly waterproof?

The LiteGrid-RN200T3 material is TPU/PU3-coated on both sides and the seams are high-frequency welded. The zips are waterproof. The bag is designed to withstand the elements (rain, splashes). For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, an additional waterproofing treatment may be considered as an extra precaution.

4. Is the internal divider removable?

Yes. The Frame Bag Large / 02 features two large main compartments — upper and lower — separated by a removable divider. You can remove this divider to create a single large compartment if you are carrying bulky items such as a folding lock or a compressed jacket.

5. What is the difference between the Frame Bag Large / 02 and the standard Frame Bag / 02?

The Frame Bag Large / 02 offers 3.6 litres of capacity, compared to the smaller capacity of the standard Medium version. It weighs 214 g. Cyclite’s Frame Bag / 02 range is available in five sizes: Small, Medium, XT, Large and Full Frame — allowing you to choose exactly the right size for your frame and your carrying needs.
