How to choose the right handlebar bag

The handlebar bag is the heart of every bikepacking setup: it sits right in front of you, doesn’t interfere with pedalling and allows easy access to essential items without getting off the bike. Here is what to consider when choosing the right model.

Capacity: from compact pouches to 14-litre roll bags

For city rides and short outings, a few litres are enough: the METRO pouch and the 1.2-litre REFUEL bottle holder keep keys, snacks and water bottles within easy reach. For cycle touring, there’s the 8.5-litre BACTRIAN, while for self-supported adventures the 14-litre CLIMB roll bag provides enough room for sleeping gear and extra clothing.

Materials and waterproofing

Durable technical fabrics and waterproof constructions protect your belongings from rain and mud, whether you’re riding gravel tracks or mountain bike trails where the weather can quickly change. For your smartphone, there’s TRACER, the waterproof phone holder that lets you use the touchscreen while riding.

Installation and compatibility

GIVI Bike handlebar bags feature adjustable straps and proven fastening systems compatible with most handlebars. Installation and removal take just a few moments. Before purchasing, simply check the clearance between the handlebar and front wheel, particularly on smaller bike sizes.
