FAQ

1. What is the difference between versions 01 and 02?

The Saddle Bag / 02 retains the same volume (12.9 L) and weight (356 g for the /02 vs 318 g for the /01) but features improvements to the mounting system and materials for increased durability.

2. Is it really waterproof?

Yes, 100% waterproof thanks to the double-sided coated and high-frequency welded LiteGrid-RN200T3 fabric. The roll-top closure must be rolled up at least three times to ensure complete waterproofing.

3. Is sway completely eliminated?

The SR system, featuring a central carbon fibre strip and individual aluminium hooks on each saddle rail, ensures maximum stability, even when standing on the pedals and on rough terrain, unlike conventional panniers.
