Product Description:

Revised version of the popular Terrapin saddlebag

New features include a bungee loop on the top of the holster so you can quickly lash down that extra layer and a new rear strap design for easier mounting. The updated drybag features hypalon slots for a rear light attachment, a low profile one way purge valve.

The Revelate Designs Terrapin® 8L saddle bag is an updated, smaller version of the modular Terrapin® System. Like the popular Terrapin System, the mount stays on the bike and the custom fitted drybag is removable for easy packing. With 8 liters of capacity, it is perfect for most lightweight bikepacking trips and fits bikes with low tire clearance. It is perfectly sized for small framed bikes, including plus bikes with inherently diminished clearance.

• Bungee loop on the top of the holster

More about the Revelate Designs Terrapin Saddle Bag:

A key feature of the Terrapin holster-like mount is the Indie-Rail attachment system. This a progression from conventional bikepacking bag mounts where the rail straps are fixed to the top center of the bag. Each rail is cinched down to the sides of the bag, virtually eliminating side to side bag sway without the need for external hardware. Revelate Designs combines this with a rigid internal structure and active camming buckles to prevent straps from slipping on rough terrain.

The holster is stiffened on all sides including an external plastic bottom sheet which protects the bottom of the bag like a fender. A composite internal top sheet provides a solid and stable platform for the strap points and transmits the vertical load to the seatpost connection.

Important Notes:

It is mandatory to check tire clearance prior to use, especially with full suspension bikes. Bag contact with a tire can cause a bad wreck and ruin your day. Tire damage to the bag is not covered by warranty.
The Terrapin® 8L is not compatible with the Spocket top pouch.
Please evaluate how your system works well before a planned trip.
