We retired the fantastic Sackville Small saddlesack because not enough people loved it and took advantage of its short height and that allowed it to sneak in (on small bikes) saddle-to-tire gaps that no other saddle bag of that decent capacity could even dream of.
Namely:
- itโs 2-inches deeper top to bottom, so it holds a lot more. (worth $17.50)
- it has D-rings on the flap, so you can attach a Sackville Kangaroo pocket for wallet-phone-keys-tools. (Worth $14.24, but you still have to buy the $22 KangaPocket)
- the underside has an abrasion pad with loops, for tying onto a rack to make it maximally non-sway-y and harder to steal. Or at least slower to steal. (worth $13.26)
The new dimensions are 7.25โH x 12W x 11โDeep (front to back). Saddle-loop to tire requirement: 10.25-inches. Less with a fender or rack.
It is the ideal size for slight shopping trips or long day rides with lots of stuff. It is hard to imagine a bike rider whoโd hate this bag.
ALL Sackville Saddlesacks are the result of 30+ years of saddlebag use and obsession. These are our own designs, made without compromise in Connecticut. They’re expensive, but last decades. They all require a saddle with loops. All modern leather saddles and some plastic ones have them.
