But of course you want to occasionally access the things in your backpack without having to laboriously take it off and roll it up every time.

For this purpose, we have installed a side opening with a waterproof AquaGuard® zipper on the right side . If you carry the backpack over your shoulder, you can access the contents of the main compartment in one go.

On the outside of the backpack there is a wide reflector strip and two smaller reflector strips on the two shoulder straps .

The stripes are not noticeable during the day due to their slight shimmer, but in the dark you will be seen by drivers in good time. So your road bike backpack accompanies you even on nighttime adventures .

You will also find a side pocket for your drinking bottle on the outside .

And the Explorer backpack for racing bikes also has a lot to offer inside: a large main compartment , a 24.8 cm x 35.7 cm padded laptop compartment for 13 - 15 inch laptops (or 16 inch Macbook Pro laptops) , two small inside pockets, a side net that you can easily access from the outside via a zipper. Overall, it offers a capacity of 23 to 26 liters.

And when it rains? No worries! The upper material of the Explorer bike backpack for men and women is made of recycled polyester . Thanks to the polyurethane coating, it is rainproof . The closures are also waterproof , so the contents of your backpack are 100% protected from moisture .

To clean your backpack, you should still not wash it in the washing machine. Instead, simply use a damp cloth and soap if necessary.

So that your racing bike backpack doesn't stick to your back, we have reinforced the back area with foam. The extra light back padding ensures optimal comfort. The breathable and padded shoulder straps are adjustable in size .

In order to distribute the weight or load evenly, the backpack also has a chest strap . You can adjust this individually if necessary and distribute the backpack weight across the entire shoulder and chest area. This means you can make full use of the volume of your backpack, for example to transport your weekly shopping or books, clothes or a picnic without your back suffering. Of course, you can easily pick up the backpack with the reinforced top handle. And there are even more options:

As a real bicycle nerd, you have probably already asked yourself which is more practical – a bicycle bag or a backpack? Although a bicycle bag has its advantages, it is less practical to transport when you have parked your bike and are then on foot. That's why we offer luggage rack hooks as an additional option (not included in the price).

Sold in pairs , this handy little accessory can be attached to the back to securely attach the backpack to the luggage rack . The luggage rack hooks are compatible with all standard luggage rack bars up to 15 mm in diameter. The Explorer is a bicycle bag and backpack in one. And that's a real advantage because you can simply transfer the weight of the backpack to your bike and pedal carefree!

The Explorer backpack comes in 5 colors : beige, light blue, black, gray and green. It is sold with only one front pocket , but has space for an additional side pocket on one side . As with our other backpack models, you can swap the front and side pockets as you like and attach them to prevent theft thanks to the MOLLE system .

So you can swap them out as needed to customize your backpack and adapt it to your style . We offer many different designs, colors and patterns and will continue to release new designs in the future , so there are no limits to your imagination!

These two points play an important role at Cabaïa. We use sustainable and long-lasting materials to make our backpacks . The Explorer backpack is also made from 100% recycled plastic bottles .
