Old Man Mountain Manzanita Cradle & Bag

The Manzanita system is designed to work with both 31.8mm and 35mm handlebars, covering the vast majority of modern drop-bar setups.

Yes. The cradle features integrated accessory mounting points on the top, specifically designed to keep your lights and computers visible and accessible even when the bag is fully loaded.

The cradle uses quick-mount wings that allow you to slide the bag into place and secure it with one hand, which is significantly faster and easier than traditional strap-based systems when you're out on the trail.

The bag is constructed from waterproof materials and features a roll-top closure, which provides excellent protection against rain, mud, and road spray during wet rides.

The system is rated for a maximum load of 3.6 kg (approximately 8 lbs). It is best suited for lightweight, compressible gear like sleeping systems or extra layers.

The Manzanita uses dual-bolt clamps that provide a very secure, rigid grip on your handlebars, which effectively prevents the rotation and swaying often found with lighter-duty strap systems.

The air purge valve allows you to squeeze excess air out of the bag after you've rolled it shut, helping you compress your gear into a smaller, more stable package that won't bounce around while you ride.
