Bicycle rack bag Black Friday on sale

Single, double, pair or seat bag

A single bag attaches to one side of the rack: it’s the usual format for daily journeys. A double bag combines two pockets connected by a bridge that goes over the platform, and can be placed and removed in one swift motion. A pair consists of two independent bags, to be attached on each side. The seat bag, finally, is fixed onto the platform, leaving the sides free. The volume stated may refer to a single bag or the total: check before comparing. Detailed choice criteria are on the rack bag page, open all year round.

The rack attachment system

Classic hooks are adjustable on tubes of various diameters and fit most racks. Click systems, MIK, Snapit from Racktime, or i-Rack require a platform or adapter of the same system; the UniKlip from KLICKfix attaches to most racks without an additional adapter. Many models are available in a version per system, and this mention, in the name, takes precedence over all others. When the battery of an electric bike occupies the space under the platform, ensure that it remains accessible.

The criteria that separate two discounts

For a rack bag, a discount is judged on equal format: the crossed-out price of a pair cannot be compared to that of a single bag.

• The unit or the pair, indicated by the mention x2 or the word pair.
• The volume, per bag or for the total.
• The attachment: hooks, MIK, Snapit, UniKlip or i-Rack.
• The protection: waterproof bag with rolled closure, or water-repellent fabric with rain cover.
• The weight allowed per bag, to be added without exceeding that of the rack.

The brands of rack bags in the promotion

Willex classifies its double bags made of coated fabric by capacity, from 30 to 57 litres, and offers them in series with patterns like Fire, Ice or Leaves: for equal volume, two Willex offers may differ only in the print.

Newlooxs sells certain bags in pairs, like the 37-litre Oslo Joli or the 40-litre Sports, and others individually for the Racktime system, like the 31-litre Sports Racktime: the name indicates which of the two formats you are purchasing.

Frequently asked questions

Is the volume displayed that of a bag or the pair?

It depends on the brands: some add the two bags together, others state the volume of a single one. Read the sheet, where the detail often appears, before comparing two offers.

How do I know which system my rack has?

Look at the platform: a MIK insert, a Snapit plate, or a brand-specific rail can be recognized by their shape and are detailed in the manual. A platform with simple tubes accepts hooks and the UniKlip.

Will a double bag fit on an electric bike rack?

Yes, if the bridge goes over the battery without compressing it and that it remains removable. Otherwise, prefer two single bags or a pair.

What is the weight limit per bag?

That of the sheet, often around 10 kg for a large bag. Add the bags and the contents of the platform: the total must remain below the maximum load of the rack.

Do promotions on rack bags last throughout November?

Yes at Vélo-Store. The Black Friday retains the name of the Friday following Thanksgiving, but its discounts on rack bags extend through the rest of the month. Check the system of your platform, MIK, Snapit or hooks, before choosing a version.
