The Restrap Downtube Bag is designed to boost carrying capacity by utilising the otherwise dead space beneath the downtube. It is particularly useful for smaller frames or anyone who requires extra capacity. The Downtube Bag adds 1.2 litres of fully waterproof stowage, attached simply via Velcro, meaning there is no need for specific bosses.
The Downtube Bag has a fully waterproof construction, with a roll top closure to keep the elements, road spray, or trail debris out. A single integrated Velcro strap wraps around the bag and downtube, securing it tightly in place and minimising rattles. A stitched-in grip pad prevents the bag from sliding out of position. The bolt-free attachment means the Downtube Bag can be swapped from bike to bike in seconds.
While you can store what you like in the Downtube Bag, Restrap believes that it is most useful for spares, tools, and heavier items. By storing them in a low and central location, you help maintain the bike’s natural centre of gravity. This is also useful if You run a dropper seat post on Your bike and are unable to store items under Your saddle, or if Your bikepacking set up means that You are not able to run a tool pouch in its usual location.
The Downtube Bag is designed to fit all bikes, from the skinniest of steel tubing up to 19cm circumference downtubes. While it was designed to fit beneath the downtube, there is nothing stopping You from getting creative with where You choose to fit the bag, such as cargo cages, the seatpost, or elsewhere.
