Description

The Fuel Pod sits on your top tube for extra on-bike storage and easy access mid-ride. The optional Cradle system keeps your bag stable and allows you to quickly detach your Fuel Pod to take valuables with you.

Detaches quickly and easily from Cradle at pit stops
Highly water-resistant due to waterproof materials
Front-facing cable port for light batteries/charging

With 1L and 1.5L size options, the Fuel Pod is a lightweight and secure way of carrying snacks, valuables and batteries on your ride when your jersey pockets are bulging. The sides are foam padded to reduce rattling and a front-facing cable port for bike light batteries or charging your powerpacks/devices by dynamo. The Fuel Pod sides are foam padded to protect your valuables and reduce rattling.

The innovative Cradle system holds the Fuel Pod in place like a rigid but wholly inedible taco shell. This provides extra support when riding off-road and allows you to attach and reattach your Fuel Pod with minimal faff – faff is the bikepacker’s nemesis! The Fuel Pod lifts straight out while the Cradle stays securely strapped to your bike – ideal for taking your valuables with you at short pit stops. The Fuel Pods can also be attached separately using the included velcro straps to save on weight.

The Fuel Pod and Cradle are designed to last, ride after ride, with hardwearing materials and all stress points reinforced using bar tack stitching. The Cradle is made from super abrasion resistant 1100D Cordura® and the Fuel Pods are made from lightweight and exceptionally tough VX21 fabric, with 500D Cordura® along the spine.

With fully waterproof outer materials and YKK Aquaguard zips, the Fuel Pod is highly water-resistant, protecting your stuff in bad weather. The stitching isn’t seam-taped though, so we’d always recommend wrapping any electronics in a dry bag – especially if the forecast is bleak!

Handmade and designed on the edge of the Peak District by our talented factory team, the Fuel Pod and Cradle both come with a 25-year Alpine Bond.
