Colorado Saddlebag (17L)
Description
Built for gravel riding, bikepacking and lightweight touring, the Colorado Saddlebag combines Carradice durability with modern bikepacking stability. Unlike traditional seat packs that sway under load, the Colorado uses the integrated Bagman support rack system to keep the bag stable and secure over rough terrain, steep climbs and fast gravel descents.
The rigid rack-supported design dramatically reduces side-to-side movement when riding out of the saddle, helping eliminate the pendulum effect common with many strap-mounted saddle bags. The result is a more stable ride, improved bike handling and greater confidence on technical terrain.
Handmade in the UK using the toughest waterproof materials, the Colorado offers 17 litres of storage capacity with a roll-top closure, taped seams and external compression for secure load carrying on long-distance adventures.
Designed for gravel bikes, touring bikes and endurance road setups, the Colorado is ideal for riders wanting the carrying capacity of a large seat pack without the instability often associated with rackless bikepacking luggage.
Why Choose the Colorado Saddlebag?
Many bikepacking seat packs rely solely on straps attached to the saddle and seatpost, which can lead to unwanted sway, movement and tyre rub when fully loaded. The Colorado’s rack-supported design keeps the bag stable and supported even on rough terrain, making it especially suited to gravel riding, climbing and multi-day adventures.

Just waited until I'd done a tour in mixed weather to feedback. I've tried a few saddlebags including ones from Alpkit and Restrap - and this is my favourite. Stable because of the bagman system and really well constructed. I have a small frame - 52cm and still managed this bag with lots of clearance - so good for small frames. It's a good option.
Brilliant product. Well made and didnt wobble. Loads of space for everything I need to take on my long rides. Highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to purchase this make in the future.
Very nice quality as usual, materials are strong and durable ! The saddle rack is genius, as the bag it's not moving too much on dirt roads and very easy to remove when your day is over. Capacity is just a perfect compromise, 17L is enough for what you may need and still protects you to carry too much !
Great bag well made good for bike packing
Very pleased with this big bag. The mount (included) allows very fast mounting and removal and hold the bag in a stable position. Pleased with the capacity and bungee on top is handy to stow waterproof between showers.
This is the best bag I ever had. Just love it
