Salsa EXP Series Frame Pack

The EXP Series HT Frame Pack is designed to fit a wide range of hardtail mountain bike frames, but fitment depends on your bike's specific geometry and size. We recommend checking the dimensions of your frame's main triangle against the pack's specifications before purchasing to ensure a secure fit.

The pack is built from durable, weather-resistant materials with TPU lamination and PU coating, paired with #10 YKK weather-resistant zippers. While it is highly effective at keeping gear dry in wet conditions, it is water-resistant rather than fully waterproof, so we recommend using dry bags for sensitive electronics during prolonged downpours.

Yes, the pack features an integrated exit port specifically designed for routing hydration bladder hoses or light cables, allowing you to stay hydrated without needing to stop or open the main compartment.

The pack includes a hook-and-loop internal divider that allows you to customize the main compartment. This helps keep heavier items secure and prevents smaller gear from shifting around while you are riding on technical terrain.

The dedicated flat pocket on the non-driveside is designed for quick access to essentials like maps, multi-tools, or snacks. While you can reach it while stopped, it is positioned to be easily accessible without having to unzip the entire main compartment.

Frame packs are generally excellent for handling because they keep the weight centered and low within the frame triangle. This design helps maintain a lower center of gravity compared to saddlebags or handlebar bags, which keeps the bike feeling stable and predictable on technical trails.
