Day Tripper Saddle Bag

I love the build quality and capacity of the Day Tripper. I can carry a pump, flat kit, a shell jacket or vest and some fruit or snacks perfectly. There is a slight issue when mounting to my Brooks Flyer (with the springs). It will sit extra low on these rails and extra bit of strap for expansion ends up touching the rear wheel if not completely loaded. Homemade fix: attach a piece of doubled sided Velcro to the sewn accessory hanger and secure dangly strap by wrapping Velcro around it. Cheap and easy fix, but maybe should have come with a strip of Velcro for that purpose. Still, it’s a great bag and stays secure during bumpy rides.

A good back is just big enough and out of mind when you are riding. Day Tripper served me well as an emergency store, puffy layer, bike tools, and a spare tube. No complaints so far.

This saddle bag/pouch is the perfect size to keep on your bike all the time. It will hold all your repair stuff as well as a wind or rain jacket. It is too small for the pump I use but that is ok. The bag is very well made like all of Roadrunner products I own. Pick the color you like and enjoy the ride.
