Bike Frame Bag Guide: Store gear on your bicycle's frame.

All Vaude panniers, backpacks, handlebar bags, rack-top bags, saddlebags and wedge packs are 10% off thru June 27th!

Getting Started:

Bike frame bags are a convenient and out-of-the-way place to store extra gear on your bike when you run out of room elsewhere. Bike frame bags can be used in a wide variety of circumstances from local commuting to long distance touring and just about everything in between. The narrow profile of bike frame bags ensures that they are kept out of the way of a rider's movement on the bike, and their attachment straps are designed in such a way so as not to interfere with the bicycle's cables and housing.

 

There are generally two types of frame bags: front frame bags and rear frame bags. Front frame bags mount to the front triangle of your bicycle's frame where the down tube and top tube come together. Rear frame backs mount to your bicycle's rear triangle where the down tube and seat tube meet. Both types mount underneath your bicycle's top tube.

 

Bike frame bags are a great addition to other bike bag combinations. For example, you can combine a bike frame bag with a bike saddle bag if you only need a little bit of additional space. However, if you are carrying a large amount of gear and have filled up your bike panniers, bike handlebar bags, and your bike rack-top bags, a bike frame bag will provide much needed space for those extra items you can't live without.
