Product Information

Full details

The Apidura Packable Backpack is an ideal choice for endurance cyclists and commuters who need a lightweight, waterproof storage solution that doesn't add bulk to their ride. It provides 13 litres of space for extra gear and compresses down into its own integrated pocket for mounting on the bike frame when empty. While it offers excellent versatility for long rides, it lacks the structured padding of a traditional dedicated laptop backpack, making it best suited for clothing and soft goods rather than delicate electronics.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the backpack completely waterproof?

Yes, the bag is made from seam-taped, waterproof nylon, though the roll-top should be properly closed to ensure maximum weather resistance.

Can I fit a 15-inch laptop inside?

While the volume allows for a 15-inch laptop, the bag lacks padding and structure, so it is not recommended for electronics.

What is the weight of the bag?

The bag is designed as an ultralight piece of equipment, keeping mass to a minimum for high-performance cycling.

Does it come with a mounting strap?

Yes, an integrated velcro strap is included to secure the compressed pack to your bike frame.

How do I maintain the waterproof coating?

Simply keep the bag clean of debris and store it in a cool, dry place. Avoid using harsh chemical detergents.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty packing the bag into the integrated pocket

Ensure all air is pressed out of the backpack while folding it tightly toward the pocket opening to maximize compression.

Strap slipping during ride

Adjust the sternum strap to a higher position on the chest and ensure the slider is locked into place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Extremely lightweight and compact for easy storage
Fully waterproof seam-taped fabric protects gear from rain
Secure fit with adjustable sternum strap for stability
Convenient integrated storage pocket mounts directly to the bike frame

Cons

No internal rigid support or laptop padding
Shoulder straps are thin to maintain packability
Not suitable for carrying heavy or sharp-edged objects

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To pack the backpack away, fold the main compartment into the integrated internal pocket, following the internal contours. Once compressed, secure it to your bike frame using the included velcro strap.

Compatibility is universal, as it attaches to any standard bike frame. To ensure the longevity of the waterproof fabric, avoid storing the bag while it is wet for extended periods. If the bag gets dirty, hand wash it with mild soap and cool water, then air dry away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the seam-taped seals.
