Things to Know About Our Trunk Bag

A small, top-mounted luggage rack bag for maximum flexibility in everyday life

The Trunk Bag is the ideal top-mount pannier if you're looking for a compact yet versatile solution for your bike. As a well-designed Trunk Bag, it offers plenty of storage space for your essentials without adding unnecessary bulk. Its combination of a compact design and a clever compartment system makes it especially great for your daily commute, short trips, or spontaneous rides.

Despite its size, the bag features several compartments where you can store your belongings safely and keep them within easy reach. Thanks to its sturdy mounting system, it’s easy to attach to the rear rack and stays securely in place even while you’re riding. Whether used as a classic bike bag for the rear rack or flexibly off the bike as a backpack or crossbody bag—this compact bike bag adapts to your everyday life and is perfect for commuters and daily trips.

Compact, well-designed, and versatile

A small, clip-on luggage rack bag doesn't have to sacrifice functionality—and the Trunk Bag is a perfect example of that. The water-repellent material protects your belongings in light rain, while optional accessories like a rain cover can provide additional protection. The high-quality craftsmanship ensures durability, so you'll enjoy your bag for a long time—whether for everyday use or occasional trips.

Thanks to the built-in shoulder strap, this bag can also be comfortably carried as a crossbody bag. At the same time, its compact design makes it easy to combine with other solutions, such as frame bags for your bike, handlebar bags, or other bike bags for the rack. This creates a flexible setup that you can expand depending on your needs—from short rides to smaller bikepacking adventures or trips on an e-bike.
