If you are familiar with 'The Rules' set out by the Velominati, Rule #29 states: “No European Posterior Man-Satchels.†The Keepers of the Cog go on to add: “Saddlebags have no place on a road bike, and are only acceptable on mountain bikes in extreme cases.â€
Many cyclists follow this rule religiously, but there are plenty of BikeRadar staffers who've concluded that saddlebags are a must after popping the seams of one overstuffed jersey pocket too many while trying to fit in ‘just one more gel’.
Of course, saddlebags are not without their faults – velcro straps rubbing on seatposts for hours on end can ruin your bike's fancy paint job, or those new Assos bibs you told your significant other were ‘on sale’ and would ‘last forever’.
