Bar bag for gravel bike

Post by jaminb »

Hello

Can anyone recommend a bar bag for my Pinnacle Arkrose. I have a Wildcat lion for the mtb and its more than capable of carrying 20 litres + of gear. I suspect it would work with lightweight summer kit between dropped bars but seems a little overkill for sub 10 litres.

Thanks

I use a Revelate Harness and a 13L Alpkit bag. Fits nicely between the levers.

I've used an Alpkit dual 13L in a Wildcat harness on my Arkose 2. Had to go up to 44cm bars though (standard on the L and XL) but if it wasn't so full it might have fitted between the levers on a 42cm.

Edit - being an Arkose 2 its levers are only for braking. I don't know if you'd need extra room if you have STIs on yours.
