You know those moments when you plan a trip and you realize you don’t have enough room in your bikepacking handlebar harness bag for everything you need? That’s where Carradice-inspired flap bags come in handy and why we like the Bags by Bird Goldback bag so much. They expand into a cavernous cavity to cram every last bit of tortillas or chips or camera lenses into.
Jay Ritchey’s bag company, Bags by Bird, has an “IN STOCK” catalog, which we’ve plugged a lot over the years, and its newest item is this high-vis Goldback bag. The entire bag is in safety orange, so you’ll be visible to others on the trail, and the interior is full nük yellow so your stuff is easy to find after being stuffed into it.
