Product Information

Full details

The Fidlock PINCLIP Saddle Bag is ideal for cyclists who prioritize quick, tool-free access to their ride essentials like spare tubes and multi-tools. Offering a 400ml capacity, it features a unique magnetic-mechanical attachment system that ensures a secure, wobble-free connection to your bicycle saddle. While the slim profile is perfect for a minimalist aesthetic, riders carrying large pump frames or bulky emergency kits may find the 400ml capacity limiting.

FAQs

Is the PINCLIP mount included with the bag?

Yes, the saddle bag comes with the necessary hardware to mount the PINCLIP system to your bicycle saddle.

Can I fit a full-size floor pump in this bag?

No, the 400ml capacity is designed for compact items like mini-tools, tubes, and CO2 canisters; it is too small for a full-size floor pump.

Is the bag truly waterproof?

The bag meets the IPX5 standard, meaning it is protected against low-pressure water jets and heavy rain, but it should not be submerged.

Can I mount an action cam while the bag is attached?

The PINCLIP system allows for the bag to be replaced by a camera, or you can use the mount separately; check the system compatibility documentation for specific configurations.

Does the bag work with carbon saddle rails?

Yes, but ensure you do not overtighten the clamp bolts to avoid damaging the carbon structure; consult your saddle manufacturer’s torque guidelines.

Troubleshooting

Bag does not click into place

Check the PINCLIP bracket for mud or debris and ensure the saddle rails are not preventing the mechanism from seating correctly.

Bag feels loose or rattles

Verify that the mounting bolts on the saddle rails are fully tightened and that the bag is pushed completely into the locked position.

Water getting inside

Ensure the roll-top is folded at least twice before securing the V-BUCKLE S and verify the fabric integrity near the seams.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely fast attachment and removal via magnetic technology
  • Waterproof IPX5 rating protects contents from road spray and rain
  • Sleek, minimalist design that does not interfere with pedaling
  • Doubles as an action cam mount for added versatility
  • Very stable connection that remains rattle-free on bumpy terrain

Cons

  • Small 400ml capacity may be too compact for some riders
  • Requires specific PINCLIP base hardware installed on the saddle
  • Roll-top closure requires careful alignment to ensure a perfect seal

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, mount the PINCLIP bracket to your saddle rails using the provided hardware, ensuring it is tightened to the recommended torque specifications to prevent shifting. Once the bracket is fixed, simply align the bag’s magnetic interface with the mount until you hear the distinct click. For maintenance, keep the magnetic surfaces free of heavy mud or metallic debris to ensure a clean connection. The exterior fabric can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial degreasers, which may degrade the waterproofing properties of the material. Always ensure the V-BUCKLE S is snapped into place before starting your ride.
