Product Information
Full details
The Topeak Sidekick Wedge Pack - Small is an ideal solution for cyclists who need a secure and organized way to carry essential tools and repair kits without adding significant weight to their bike. Designed for commuters and road enthusiasts alike, its semi-rigid molded construction protects sensitive items while providing easy access via a side opening. While its 0.5-liter capacity is perfect for minimalist setups, it may be too small for riders looking to pack bulky spare tubes or heavy-duty multi-tools.

FAQs
Can I fit a spare tube in the Small size?
Yes, it can typically hold a compact road tube alongside small tools, but it may be a tight fit for larger mountain bike tubes.
Is the bag waterproof?
The bag is water-resistant, but it is not fully submersible. It will protect contents from road spray and light rain.
Does it come with a mounting bracket?
Yes, it includes the F25 rail fixer bracket necessary for attachment.
Can I attach a rear light to this bag?
Yes, there is a dedicated strap specifically designed for attaching a standard bicycle tail light.
What is the weight capacity of this bag?
While it is durable, it is designed for lightweight essentials (tools/spares) and should not be used to carry heavy objects.
Troubleshooting
Bag feels loose on the saddle rails
Check that the F25 mount is tightened securely to the rails and that the lock mechanism is fully engaged.
Zipper is difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove dust or road debris and ensure the bag is not overstuffed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the bag, mount the F25 rail fixer bracket to your saddle rails using the included hardware. Once the bracket is tightened, slide the wedge pack onto the rails until you hear the audible lock. To remove the pack, simply press the release button. For care, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth after rides in muddy or wet conditions to preserve the reflective strip and zipper functionality. Ensure the zippers are kept free of grit and debris to maintain smooth operation over time.
