Selecting the Perfect Soft Saddlebags
Soft synthetic saddlebags offer a blend of spaciousness, lightweight convenience, and aesthetic appeal. Moreover, they are cost-effective. To choose the right soft saddlebags, consider these nine crucial points:
1. Denier Number: This number indicates thread thickness. A higher denier number means greater tensile strength, lending the bag extra stiffness to maintain its shape, even when empty.
2. Attachment Style: There are two types: bags that strap on and those you can throw over. Opt for those with straps that secure onto the seat, allowing easy adjustments when necessary.
3. Compartments: Saddlebags with multiple compartments are ideal for organizing various items. It’s helpful to know exactly where items like your bungee cord or suntan lotion are stored.
4. Opening Style: Top-opening saddlebags are convenient, while side-opening ones are easier to handle during rides. However, side-openings pose a risk of items spilling out.
5. Fit and Fastening: Ensure the bag fits well on your bike and check the effectiveness of its fastening system. Some bags may obstruct the passenger's leg, causing discomfort on long journeys.
6. Mounting System: Each saddlebag has a unique mounting system. Choose one where the receiving mechanism is permanently attached to the bike for easy clipping on and off.
7. Slip Prevention: Soft saddlebags can slip onto the wheel, leading to wear or even wheel jams. Install chrome extensions below the fender to prevent this issue.
8. Sagging: Saddlebags may sag over time. Hitch them higher initially, so they don’t scrape the road when they droop, which could cause wear or even ignition from friction.
9. Material and Waterproofing: Look for bags made of polyurethane-treated nylon as it repels water by forming droplets. Despite this, no soft saddlebag is entirely waterproof, so invest in a custom-fitted rain cover.
By keeping these points in mind, you can ensure that you select the most suitable soft saddlebags for your needs.
