Bicycle accessories manufacturer Blackburn recently announced a new line of bike packs called Outpost. The line currently consists of three packs: a high-capacity seat pack as well as a handlebar roll and a top tube bag.
The Outpost Seat Pack is, as mentioned above, an extra-large capacity pack, but can expand and contract to hold most any load you’d want to put behind your seat.
- Removable and weather resistant stuff bag
- Adjusts easily to larger or smaller volume cargo
- Mounts quickly on almost any bike
- Also works with many standard dry bags
- 70D Nylon, 4mm Ripstop with water resistant treatment and backing
The Outpost Handlebar Roll incorporates a stuff sack but can also accommodate most dry bags. Its quick release mount adapts to both 25.4 and 31.8 mm bars and the overall system can hold up to 8 pounds.
- Quick release mount fits on most handlebars (25.4mm and 31.8mm diameters)
- Red compression webbing also works as a shoulder strap off the bike
- Tie downs for lashing additional gear to the bag
- 8lb/3.5kg load capacity
Finally, there’s their Outpost Top Tube Bag. This spacious bag mounts just behind the steer tube and has spacious interior with an adjustable organizer. If you must have your phone in view at all times, there’s an exterior mesh pocket for you.
- Spacious interior with adjustable organizer
- Exterior mesh pocket for phone or camera
- Zippered I.D. and cash pocket
- Top tube straps adjust to mount quickly on almost any bike
- 70D nylon, 4mm ripstop with water resistant treatment
