Bikepacking bags

89 products

Bikepacking has its roots in the past: for more than a century, cyclists and adventurers have been attaching bags to their handlebars, frames and under their saddles to carry their gear on long trips. Today, a broad and sophisticated range of bags designed specifically for gravel and adventure cycling has emerged under the bikepacking label. However, bags and bikepacking can be enjoyed with almost any bike – the most important thing is to choose a model, shape and size that suit your needs. Mixed-terrain cycling – known as “rough riding” in North America and “rough stuff” in some parts of the United Kingdom – combines cycling on a variety of surfaces and terrain. This versatile form of cycling is partly a response to the growing specialisation of the cycling industry, and emphasises freedom of movement and efficiency across different surfaces.

Mixed-terrain cycling has a long history, with roots in military cycling and the subsequent development of touring. Today’s lighter off-road touring is known as bikepacking – and although it may sound like a modern phenomenon, soft luggage has been commonplace for more than a century. Early settlers in Australia travelled through the outback on bikes with bags attached to the handlebars, frame and under the saddle, just as they are today. Ride More offers high-quality bikepacking bags that stand up to the weather and long trips. The range includes saddle bags, frame bags, handlebar bags and front bags in a variety of sizes. All the bags are designed to withstand regular use and stay securely in place, even in demanding conditions. Whether you’re heading out for a weekend trip, a long cycling tour or simply looking for a way to carry your belongings neatly and lightly, bikepacking bags are the perfect solution. They bring freedom and organisation to your rides, and let you explore new routes without compromise.
