DESCRIPTION
The Backcountry Hip Pack is a lightweight, comfortable carry choice when you need more space but don’t want to wear a backpack. It combines the trail-ready features of the Backcountry Series with our expertise in on-body carry to create the perfect blend of carrying capacity and all-day comfort. Small details like a zipper capable of storing a spare chain link ensure you can carry everything you need for anything you might encounter in the backcountry.
Constructed from lightweight, breathable mesh and durable, waterproof nylon ripstop, the mountain bike waist pack features a main compartment with internal organisation pockets and two external pockets for easy access on the go. The waist strap features an elasticated velcro closure, enhanced with a secondary security buckle to dial in the on-bike anatomic fit. A high-contrast reflective design enhances visibility in all light conditions.
The Backcountry Hip Pack is made to handle the roughest rides. Designed with an ergonomic fit to sit comfortably and securely all day, no matter the conditions or the terrain.
The waistband is designed with enough stretch to ensure the pack can be worn in a variety of positions and over bulky layering, whilst always remaining comfortable and unobtrusive.
WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE
The Backcountry Hip Pack comes in a single size made to accommodate as many riders as possible and has been designed with all-day comfort in mind. To check the product fits we recommend measuring your waist, at the point where you’d like the pack to sit, whilst wearing your regular riding gear. The pack’s waist strap has some stretch and so if you are near to, or slightly over, the upper limit, there is enough give for the pack to still fit comfortably.
Minimum circumference: 70cm / 28"
Maximum circumference: 115cm / 28"
MATERIALS
The Backcountry Hip Pack is made from nylon ripstop; a rugged fabric made to our own exacting specifications for durability and waterproofing. Designed for the demands of off-road riding, this ensures light weight, low stretch, and high abrasion and tear resistance. Notably, the cycling hip pack is seam taped, creating a watertight seal that ensures the hip pack remains completely waterproof.
The velcro strap has an elastic stretch casing and features a Hypalon panel which provides additional support for the security buckle. The fastening system uses Woojin buckles for their reliability and the side straps feature lightweight mesh and padding for comfort. Low profile, quick drying padding on the rear of the bag further improves comfort without adding bulk.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Wash the Hip Pack by hand, using a mild diluted soap if necessary. Afterwards, let it air dry.
Do not machine wash, machine dry, or iron.

SIZE INFORMATION
Apidura has just launched a new interactive sizing tool for their bike packing frame bags, making it easier to get that perfectly fitting bag. Choosing which bag setup you plan on using comes down to how much gear you're needing to take and how long the journey will be. Some frame packs are limited by smaller bike frame sizes or different bike geometries so it's important to get this right.
Apidura’s new visualizer tool gives you a visual view of how your bike will look setup, by allowing you to add bags to it to visually see and ensure that they fit inside your frame. If you’re wanting a quicker answer without using the new visualizer, you can now also select your bike brand and model from a pre-populated drop down menu to get a list of bags which will fit.
Both new tools take the guesswork out of finding which bag size you’ll need and is certainly better than using paper templates or multiple rulers.
