Ortlieb waterproof Gas Pack toptube bag too!
Formally Ortlieb’s latest waterproof toptube bag debuted at Eurobike earlier this summer season, however the Gas Pack isn’t fairly able to hit the cabinets but so it hasn’t seen a number of protection but. The small 1L, 160g bag is made-in-Germany of the identical Ortlieb waterproof PU-coated nylon cloth and straps onto your toptube with 2 rubber straps or with direct mount toptube bolts.
The internally stiffened Gas Pack doesn’t want a strap round your steerer, and will get inside padding & a mesh organizer pocket. It will get an overlapping waterproof flap prime that’s secured closed with magnets to make it straightforward to function with one hand, and can apparently shut & safe itself whenever you let go of the lid. I’m fairly curious, and can begin to check one out subsequent week.
