Zipped Roll Saddlebag (3.5L)

Well made classic saddle bag

This will house a tool kit, phone keys etc, spare inner tube/puncture repair kit and other items you may need on a bike ride. Really well made and looks great on my bike. Very nice item.

Perfect for a Brompton

As ever, excellent British made quality and ideal for the essentials.....tube, repair kit, patches and much more. I chose the red version and it is ideal as another "marker" to vehicle traffic.

Strongly recommended for day rides

I have been aware of the Zipped Roll for quite some time but never troubled to look at the dimensions and thought the carrying capacity simply looked inadequate. Then I saw one on a parked bike and realised that this was a false impression. I have used a Lightweight Audax in recent years and been happy with it, but the zipped roll is marginally lighter and does not require the Bagman steel support, which saves an amount of weight worth saving. Moreover it will take much more than I expected: my tool kit and a 650B inner tube together with a plastic sandwich box, with still room left for things like a small cable lock should I decide to take one with me. It also looks tremendously neat and retains a shape which is not that of a floppy saddle bag, which can be particularly floppy when largely empty. And the D rings allow a fleece to be carried externally. Some have reported issues with the press studs and I have noticed that, but found that if they can be gripped from both sides there is no problem. I still have my Lightweight Audax if I need it - I sometimes carry a GoPro and a chest harness, for example - but I have a feeling that the Zipped Roll will be on the bike most of the time.
