The first thing to think about when picking out a bike rack is what items you want to be able to hold inside your bike. Obviously, if you want to hold larger items like water bottles or tire pumps, you’ll need a bag large enough to accommodate these items. If you’re only considering a bike bag because you want a safe place to hold your wallet or keys while riding, one of the smaller bags may work well for you.
Another thing to consider is where you would like your bag to sit while you ride. Depending on which bag you’re looking at, the bag may sit under the seat, on the handlebars, or even on the back of your bike. If you would like to be able to access your items easily while sitting or riding, you’ll likely prefer a bag that sits closer to the front where you can see and reach your items without having to dig around behind your bike or under your seat. However, if you want to forget that your items are there, a bag that sits behind you or under your seat may be the perfect option for you.
Lastly, you’ll want to think about what sort of storage space you want. Some bike bags feature one compartment where all your items will sit together. Other bags may include a mesh pocket that can help keep some smaller items (like change or keys) separated from your other belongings. One bag even features a pocket that holds your phone in place for easy accessibility and visibility. With so many options to choose from, you’re sure to find a choice that works well for your individual needs.
Not only does this bag provide storage, but it also holds your phone in a position where you can always see it while in motion.
The phone pocket is compatible with all phones below 6.5 inches. This includes iPhone XS Max and XR, iPhone 8 plus, Samsung Note 8 and 9, and Samsung S10+ and 9.
