Step 1: Measure the spacing of your handlebars, inside-to-inside, at the hoods.
Step 2: If you have integrated shifting, enlist a friend to engage the levers fully into the center space between the bars, and measure the space from tip-to-tip.
Clearance (height) specs for use at the handlebars and on the saddle
You’ll need a minimum of 11” (28cm) of space between your bicycle handlebars and the top of your front or rear tire to use the Zeitgeist Pack without a support or rack. Keep in mind that a weighted down pack may sag into the wheel, and pay attention to avoid abrasion.
Presenting the best-selling Swift Industries classic, The Zeitgeist Pack. Adaptable attachment points make this bag a perfect fit for both handlebar and saddle carry. Its rigid liner ensures stability while an internal compression strap secures your cargo so you can shred to your destination, be that the grocery store or base camp. The fitted flap sheds the elements and features two daisy chains of webbing, perfect for lacing a Bungee Booster for a little added carry capacity. Collapsible side pockets give you a little more organizational space for all those bits & bobs.
