Practical Rack-Mounted Storage for Everyday Riding.
The Blackburn Local Saddle Bags provide 26 L of rack-mounted storage for commuting, errands and everyday riding. Carrying your gear on the bike rather than your back makes heavier loads more comfortable and keeps your shoulders clear on the way to work or around town.
The pair mounts to standard rear racks and includes exterior pockets for items you want to reach quickly. Reflective print and flasher loops add useful visibility for rides in lower light.
Key Features
- Pair of rack-mounted pannier-style bags
- Total capacity: 26 L
- Compatible with standard rear racks
- Large exterior pocket for quick-access items
- Flasher loops on both sides for compatible rear lights
- Reflective print for added visibility
- Removable shoulder strap for carrying off the bike
Fit and Use
Check that your rear rack is compatible and that the bags are secure before riding. Once fitted, make sure the bags and straps are clear of the wheel, spokes and drivetrain. Distribute heavier items evenly between each side to help the bike handle predictably.
Who Is It For?
For commuters and everyday riders who want more carrying capacity for work gear, shopping or spare clothing.
Our Thoughts
These are a useful step up from a rack-top bag when you regularly carry more gear. The 26 L capacity is enough for the usual commute or a reasonable grocery run without wearing a backpack.
