WHICH SADDLEBAG TO BUY?
Buying the right saddlebag for your tour is one of the most important stages of your preparation. The wrong saddlebag will make your tour tougher in so many ways.
When buying a saddlebag online, one of the things you should look into is the size of it. If the saddlebag is too big, it will hang low and make your riding difficult and unbalanced. Too small and the saddlebag will not be able to hold all your luggage and you may have to leave some essentials behind. If the saddlebag is made of the wrong material, i.e., not waterproof, your belongings may get drenched in the rain.
Decide on the size and the kind of look you want to go for and then start searching for the right saddlebag. You’ll end up with a saddlebag that not only looks good on your bike, but will also serve your needs.
