Apidura Backcountry Downtube Pack
Best extra storage for bikepackers needing more water or gear capacity.
This is the ultimate solution for bikes starved of frame space, turning an overlooked stretch of tubing into a secure, waterproof cargo hold. While it lacks the accessibility of a jersey pocket, it offers a rugged, out-of-the-way spot for extra water or bulky spares that would otherwise clutter your setup.
