Cyclists often value their sleek bikes, whose profiles they hate to mar with lines and add-on gear. But then there’s the problem of carrying personal belongings; most cyclists would also hate to carry a backpack, and dealing with heavy saddlebags are also an inconvenience to be avoided.

Enter the BeetleBag, whose lovely design complements your bike while also offering plenty of utility. The bags, which easily and securely strap to the top tube of your bike, combine a water bottle holder at the top with zippered compartments at either side. The bulk of the bag hangs down, so it doesn’t get in the way of your legs as you cycle.

The design achieves beauty in simplicity; the four options for the bag each sport a nice gray body with pops of color at the seams. Your choices are black, red, green or blue.

 

 

The other genius of the BeetleBag is it converts into a backpack. Where other bike bags must be hauled into the bar or to work in the same form they sit on your bike, the BeetleBag quickly converts to a convenient backpack that can be whisked inside after your ride. The all-in-one solution fits on any bike, so it’s made even more versatile.
