Technical advantages
- Lightweight, high performance: 228 g for 8 L – preserves the dynamics of the bike on long hours in the saddle.
- Maximum stability: internal carbon reinforcement + SR system under the saddle; no wobbling, even when standing up.
- Adjustable volume: roll-top closure; compressible down to ~5 L to adapt to the day's load.
- Weatherproof: double-sided coated, heat-sealed fabric; closures and materials designed to stay dry and easy to clean.
- Practical and visible: elastic top mesh for textiles, large reflective elements, lamp holder(s); compatible with RADAR MOUNT (sold separately).
Compatibility
- Required vertical clearance: ≥ 21 cm between the lower edge of the saddle and the rear tire (bike in compression).
- Seatposts: compatible with carbon and Aero profiles (max width: 6 cm).
- Assembly tip: if a seatpost clamp protrudes, orient its lip forward to avoid any rubbing. Check the travel of the telescopic seatposts to prevent any contact between the bag and the tire.

CYKL Team Advice
Place soft items (sleeping bag, down jacket) at the bottom to secure the load, then compress them using the straps and roll-top closure down to approximately 5 liters if needed. Store a windbreaker or wet jersey under the elastic mesh pocket to dry while riding. Pair the Saddle Bag Small with a Frame Bag Small 1.4L for a low center of gravity and a Top Tube Bag 1.1L for instant access to supplies.
