Product Overview – Built for the Modern Cyclist
We designed this trunk bag for riders who refuse to compromise on quality or versatility. The exterior features a sophisticated carbon leather finish that complements any bike, while the interior boasts a thickened, padded partition specifically for camera equipment or delicate electronics. Dual side pockets provide quick-access storage for tools, snacks, or a phone. The top compartment unzips to reveal extra space for clothing or bulkier items. Every detail – from the reflective strips that enhance visibility to the included rain cover that shields against mud and water – is crafted to make your ride easier and safer. Ideal for electric bikes, mountain bikes, road bikes, and hybrids.
Key Features & Benefits
- Expandable Design (25L → 35L): Zipper expansion adds 10L of capacity instantly. Use day-to-day as a compact commuter bag, or expand for groceries, camping gear, or a change of clothes.
- Waterproof Carbon Leather & Nylon: The outer shell resists water, dirt, and abrasion. The integrated rain cover provides an extra layer of protection during heavy downpours – your belongings stay bone-dry.
- Reflective Safety Strips: High-visibility reflective material on all sides ensures you’re seen by motorists and pedestrians during low-light conditions or night rides.
- Thickened Camera Partition: A dedicated padded divider inside the main compartment cradles your camera body, lenses, or other fragile gear. No more rolling or jostling.
- Rubber-Coated Double Zippers: Smooth, corrosion-resistant zippers with rubber coating provide a secure seal and easy one-handed operation – even with gloves.
- Top Compartment Expansion for Clothing: The separate top section expands upward, perfect for a jacket, towel, or extra layer. Keeps dirty or wet items separate from the main compartment.

Performance & Riding Experience
On the road, this trunk bag stays stable and secure. The reinforced mounting system attaches to almost any rear rack with adjustable straps, preventing sway or bounce – even over rough terrain. The expandable design means you can start your ride with a sleek profile, then zip out extra space when you pick up groceries or souvenirs. The rubber-coated double zippers are silent and smooth, so you won’t disturb fellow riders or pedestrians. At night, the reflective strips create a bright halo around the bag, giving you 360° visibility. The rain cover deploys quickly from its own pocket; pop it over the bag and your gear stays dry through torrential showers. The carbon leather exterior wipes clean with a damp cloth, keeping your bag looking premium ride after ride.

- Night Rides: Reflective strips and the ability to attach a rear light (strap loops) keep you visible.

Why Choose Our Trunk Bag?
We understand that cyclists need more than just storage – they need reliability, versatility, and style. Our trunk bag delivers on all fronts. The high-strength nylon base resists tears and punctures, while the carbon leather overlay adds a touch of elegance. Unlike budget bags that sag or leak, our reinforced stitching and waterproof construction ensure years of trouble-free use.

Every component is tested rigorously – from the zippers to the reflective fabric – to meet the demands of daily riding and long tours. When you choose our bag, you’re investing in a product that elevates every ride.

Your safety is paramount. Reflective strips meet EN 13356 visibility standards. The rain cover is highly reflective as well. The bag’s attachment system secures with a quick-release buckle and anti-slip straps – no accidental detachment. We offer a 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. If anything goes wrong, our customer support team (based in the US & EU) will make it right. Use the bag confidently knowing you’re backed by a company that stands behind its products.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit my bike rack?
A: Yes – the bag attaches with universal hook-and-loop straps that fit most standard rear bike racks (up to 2.5 cm / 1 inch width). It also includes bottom straps to prevent lifting. Works on road, mountain, hybrid, e-bikes, and touring bikes.
Q: Is the bag completely waterproof?
A: The outer material is water-repellent and handles light rain. For heavy downpours, use the included rain cover (stores in a dedicated pocket). We recommend the cover for extended wet conditions.
Q: Can I remove the camera partition?
A: Yes – the padded divider is removable via hook-and-loop fasteners. Without it, you have one large open compartment. It’s also adjustable in width.
Q: How does the expansion work?
A: Unzip the expansion zipper located on the top sides of the bag. It pops up, adding roughly 10 liters of height. The side pockets expand slightly too. To collapse, simply zip closed.
Q: Does the rain cover protect the whole bag?
A: Yes – the cover slips over the entire trunk bag (even when expanded) and cinches tight around the bottom. It has a reflective strip on the back side.
