Features
Features
- Size (when full): 25cm H, 9cm W, 8cm D
- Single-handed opening and closing mechanism
- Double elastic mesh pockets
- Inner pocket
- RUV film-backed liner, enables quick cleaning - just wipe with a damp cloth. Unfortunate leaks do occur, like blue cheese! Most, if not all feedbags from other brands use fabric lining, which gets mouldy. (I have proof from an old Paper Roads version).
- Hole in the bottom to let water out (if not closed tightly in heavy rain water will enter the bag).
- 2 low profile velcro strips to attach to handle bars
- Adjustable strap from bag to attach to forks to keep the bag upright and stable

Bikepacking rigs are often set up with a pair of treatbags. What you put in it depends on personal preference. From Amy's experience, riding a small frame means food storage is tricky but thanks to these large treat bags, they can hide more food than it appears! On a remote ride, one bag typically holds a pack of biscuits, a bag of scroggin, can of tuna and bars/gels. The other bag holds a bottle of water with a pack of tortillas. (French fries have been carried and eaten from a treatbag).
