Bike tours with bag and baggage in all weathers: The CABEZON series bags by deuter are designed for all bicycle travellers who value easy handling paired with a low weight. These bike bags are waterproof and durable and offer plenty of storage space for your next big tour. The SB 16 saddle bag from the Bikepacking series is particularly practical with its two-part design consisting of a dry bag and a holder. The dry bag can be quickly and easily removed from its holder, filled and compressed thanks to the roll-top closure. A built-in valve further optimises compression. Once packed, you can simply clip the dry bag back into its holder using the buckles and ride off! This system is also ideal for breaks, since the holder can simply remain on the bike. The bag holder itself is attached to the seat post and seat stays by means of robust Velcro fasteners and straps. Details: • Water-repellent saddle bag for bikepacking • Sealed seams prevent the penetration of moisture • Splash-proof in accordance with IPX 4 • Removable dry bag with roll-top closure • Bag with built-in valve for compression • Quick attachment via straps with buckle • Mount remains on the bike when the dry bag is removed • Easy to fix bag holder thanks to straps with buckles and Velcro fasteners • Stiffened bottom for increased stability • Material loops and compression strap on top offer additional fastening options • Reflective design elements Technical details: • Material: 220 D polyamide (TPU-coated), 600 D polyester (TPU-coated) • Dimensions: approx. 20 x 55 x 23 cm (H x W x D) • Volume: approx. 16 l • Weight: approx. 580 g • Protection class: IPX 4 In the box: • 1 deuter CABEZON SB 16 saddle bag Please note: The reflective design elements attached as decorative elements do not represent a personal protective equipment as mentioned in EU regulation 2016/425.
