Sacoche vélo étanche en Bâche/en

Introduction

A good, waterproof bike bag is very practical for everyday trips or bikepacking trips. Reliable brands are expensive, but long-lasting. Their main asset is often their quick fastening system. If you buy the fastening system seperately, you can sew and attach the bag yourself, + you can adjust the size depending on the tarpaulins available and your personal needs.
