Product Details in Focus

Mounting is done via a special adapter that perfectly harmonizes with Brompton handlebars – stable, secure, and without impairing the folding function.

This model combines four uses in one bag. Depending on your needs, the volume can be flexibly adjusted between 8 and 10 L. The highlight: The main bag can be combined with a smaller pouch or carried separately.
Thanks to the magnetic closure, the bag can be attached or detached in seconds – ideal for quick shopping trips or the commute to the office. The elegant carbon fiber look emphasizes the modern, urban style.
