Restrap releases 14L and 17L Bar Bags with dry bag and holster included

Designed as a hassle-free luggage solution for road and gravel use, no tools are needed to take advantage of the practical carrying capacity

Restrap has updated its Bar Bag with new 14 litre and 17 litre models that come with an upgraded handlebar attachment. Both options consist of a tape sealed and waterproof 6oz nylon double roll dry bag which has a capacity of 14 litres, while the larger 17 litre option has a removable three litre ‘food pouch’ on top of this, quite literally.

Both bags now come with an upgraded handlebar attachment which uses spring-loaded cam lock buckles for hassle-free and secure attachment.

Foam spacers are also included to add a gap between your bars and bag to allow you to ride with your hands on the tops or to fit lights or accommodate other handlebar accessories you may have attached.

The new smaller size 14 litre capacity option now consists of a holster and a dry bag, “allowing riders to run efficient loadouts on their bars”, says Restrap.

An elastic drawcord is included on the top of the holster for stowing layers quickly while on the move, and for keeping jackets, gloves or other accessories accessible.

The larger 17 litre option features the same 14 litre dry bag that's used on the smaller size as well as a removable three litre capacity ‘food pouch’ - this is held in place with Fidlock fittings, and with a new Hypalon retention system which Restrap says has been added for extra security on rough terrain.

As an avid road and track racer, she reached the heady heights of a ProCyclingStats profile before leaving for university. Having now completed an MA in Multimedia Journalism, she’s hoping to add some (more successful) results. Although her greatest wish is for the broader acceptance of wearing funky cycling socks over the top of leg warmers.
