The Tail Grab ($105) is a smaller handlebar bag with a rando-style opening (opens toward rider), making access quick and comfortable. An additional front slip stretch pocket is perfect for carrying sunscreen, gloves, and snacks. Bags by Bird just announced these new bags in a made-to-order (currently 4-6 weeks lead time*) production style, so we reached out for the 411…
Pardon our late-night post, but these bags are too good not to give some love. We’re big fans of camo-printed bags, and this limited edition Goldback bag from Bags by Bird has caught our eye…
Over the years I’ve slowly tinkered with my touring setup to really nail down which pieces of kit work best for the type of riding I do and where I’m heading next. I’m always looking for new products that are versatile in terms of the climate and terrain they can be used on, and most importantly I want them to last, as this stuff can be difficult to replace while on the road. Most of the items on this list are things I’ve started to use over the last year or two, but there are also a couple of items that have been a staple of my setup for the last 7 years.
Jay Ritchey of Bags By Bird (BXB) recently started offering custom bags not only for fabric choice and all the usual options but also specifically tailored to the height of your bars and your desired width. For riders with a lot of front-end real estate or those with a minimal amount, this can be an amazing way to maximize your gear space. In true BXB fashion, the bag looks incredible and functions equally beautifully.
