The Z Adventure R17 saddle bag is a saddle bag designed to carry a large volume without requiring the installation of a rear rack. Thanks to its numerous robust hook-and-loop straps and its tear-resistant reinforcement at the base, this bag attaches securely to the saddle rail and post, ensuring a balanced load distribution on the bike. With an adjustable capacity ranging from 8 to 17 litres, it is perfectly suited to cyclists covering very long distances.
Equipped with reflective details and a loop for a light, the Z Adventure R17 is ideal for carrying bulky and lightweight items such as clothing.
The waterproof fabric design, ensured by the heat-sealing of the inner pocket, along with the roll-top closure, guarantees safe transport of the necessary equipment during your rides.

"Good waterproofing but very limited durability, especially in contact with the saddle (stitches open on the 3rd exit)".
"Very voluminous, doesn't move and performs its functions perfectly. On the other hand, friction has worn it prematurely at the seatpost. You can't see it, but I don't know if it affects the seal."
"My opinion after using it for 750kms. Pros. Very large with 17 liters. Quality of materials. Minuses. The saddle attachment straps should be slightly larger to be able to attach it under a Berthoud or Brooks type leather saddle, the canvas is a little too thick for my taste to ride it when it's not full. I added an ORTLIEB tensioning strap to prevent it from moving too much when dancers once it's full."
"I recommend this pannier, very good value for money, good loading capacity, if I had to give one point - I'd say the attachment point at the seat tube can be annoying when touching the hamstrings."
"I bought this saddlebag to avoid having to take a backpack to work and I'm very happy with it - it's practical and the capacity is top notch, it fits well and doesn't get in the way when pedaling."
"Not yet used but attaches very easily and the bag is light."
"I chose this model for the price and capacity. I use it every day to go to work and so far it suits me. Wear marks quickly appeared on the seat tube because my saddle height is a bit tight (but this is specified in the product presentation and I had not taken it into account). Watertightness is OK, no side-to-side rocking. In conclusion, the model suits me, but in the future I'll choose a better-designed model in terms of shape to avoid contact with my thighs when pedaling, especially on a long trip."
"Tried it over 4 days and super happy. a little tricky to put in place (to pass the straps inside the saddle) you forget when riding and the capacity allows you to put quite a lot of clothes. ... to see over time material-wise?"
"The product looks very good to me. But I haven't used it yet. Excellent value for money"
"Difficult to fix under the saddle when full and difficult to fill when fixed under the saddle".
