So you’ve gone home for Christmas, now you’re heading back to the real world and you need a way to get your goodies from one end of the country to the other. Good job then that we’ve just had a fresh order of trusty European bike bags in to the store.
Backs
Bagaboos, uber-cool multi-coloured bags formed by ex-messengers in Hungary cultivated a cult following around Europe’s larger cities thanks to the ubiquitous hype surrounding ‘courier cool’.
After sponsoring last year’s European Cycle Messenger Championships (EBMC), Bagaboo have been announced as the brains behind the 2010 ECMCs in their hometown, Budapest. The organisers are bound to get busy in the run-up, so get your orders in now!
Ideal for odd-shaped stocking fillers as well as an array of heavy tools, the bags are formed from tearproof and water resistant “Cordura®” and lined with coloured tarp.
The Velorution staff picked their favourite colour-combos so check in store and see if we have the perfect colour match for your bike. We’ve got some lovely green, amber, blue and grey-contrasts in stock in Extra Large, Large (size shown below) and Medium.
Racks
Ortlieb have spoiled us this year with their smart-looking City Biker bag, a waterproof pannier bag that masquerades as an over-the-shoulder number. Using 28-years of practice and German know-how, Ortlieb has designed something totally intune with today’s office dress code.
The City Biker bag is a tight-sealing haven for A4 documents and laptops up to 13.3 inches alike. It comes with a shoulder strap but also with its own Quick-Lock 2 hook rail for easy on-bike fixing.
