Review by Brian Houdek
I have been through so many top tube packs and the failure point is ALWAYS the zipper. The YKK waterproof zippers last longer but those are hard to open/close, which sucks when you want to go fast and you don't want to fumble with a tough zipper. Apidura has solved the zipper problem with this bag. It's so easy to open/close it while riding full speed. It mounts perfectly and stays put. I have been through so many packs... far too many. This is the best top tube pack on the market - well worth the money. I also love that I can hold a battery pack in it and the USB cable can exit the front of the bag without losing any waterproof capabilities.

I really like this bolt on top tube bag but it is just a bit smaller than I needed. I wanted to be able to get my phone (s23) in it but it is just a little big. I also wish it was just a tad more ridgid. I do like how narrow it is as I do not rub my knees on it. Also like the padding on the bottom. If it was 20$ cheaper I would give it 5 stars.

I have this secured to my bike with the included washers and nylon bolts that a easy to take on and off. Does not rub when standing up on uphills. plenty of space for gel packs, blox and iphone. no rattle.

I was looking for a bento box for my new gravel bike, but I needed one that was mountable because my bike has the Specialized Futureshock, so it isn't recommended to have anything secured to the boot of that. I also wanted something that was easy to open and close, as well as something that was waterproof. This Apidura bag fit the bill perfectly!

This is an accessory, so it's not going to fundamentally alter your ride experience, but this product really addresses almost all the complaints I've ever had about top tube packs. It is huge, easily holding my phone and my road emergency parts/tools. The ingenious zipperless closure is convenient and has been reliable, although I wonder how it would stay closed in a wreck.

Quality product that I�m confident will last. Good stitching, durable material and fabric closure mechanism. Holds a good quantity of items to support longer rides ( I use it to carry my phone, a tube of extra electrolyte tabs, and some additional food pouches I don�t want in my jersey pockets). Comes with spacers/ washers to go under the bag and keep it from contacting and scratching my frame.

What makes this bag so great is that it has a flap and when open the flap you see the entire contents of the bag. Can't do that with a zippered bag. Unzip a zippered bag and they pretty much stay closed and you have to rummage around with your hand trying to find what your looking for. This bag is perfect for bikes with bosses on the top tube due to the optional screw in mounts (included).

Perfect size. Fits my iPhone 13 max pro with otterbox case, George Costanza wallet and big set of keys and snack all at the same time. Keeps shape and easy to open and close while cycling

Using it for the first time on an annual seven day bike ride. Day three it has worked out well.

A wonderful and an essential tool for anyone who loves gravel rides. The magnetic closure allows easy access closes to keep items inside dried.

This pack is perfect if you have mount bolt bosses. It is big enough for essentials like a phone, keys, hat, snacks but not so big it hits your knees out of the saddle. The magnetic flap opening is easy to open while riding. I haven't tested it in the rain yet but don't expect a problem.

The Apidura was very easy to install. I use it on every ride to hold my phone, energy bars and gels which I can access easily as I ride.
