Ortlieb Bike Packing Frame-Pack
Best waterproof storage for bikepackers seeking a stable, balanced ride.
This bag transforms your bike’s empty triangle into a stable, low-slung cargo hold that keeps heavy gear from throwing off your handling. You sacrifice the ability to carry traditional water bottles in the frame, but the trade-off is a perfectly balanced ride that stays bone-dry through the worst weather.
