Sacoche de selle bikepacking Apidura Backcountry Saddle Pack 4.5L

Apidura ’s Backcountry Saddle Pack 4.5L is designed for mountain bikers, gravel riders and bikepackers looking for a lightweight, robust storage solution that’s perfectly suited to off-road rides. Its 4.5-litre capacity makes it easy to carry clothing, camping gear or essential accessories without compromising the bike’s manoeuvrability. Its compact design is ideal for bikes with limited clearance between the rear wheel and the saddle, whilst remaining compatible with dropper seatposts. 

Made from the exclusive Hexalon fabric and reinforced with 840D nylon panels, it offers excellent abrasion resistance and is completely waterproof thanks to its welded seams. Its three-point mounting system effectively minimises movement whilst riding, even on the most technical terrain. Reflective elements and a light mount complete this pannier, designed for the most demanding adventures.
