Osprey Escapist™ Saddle Bag

The Escapist Family enables you to create a complete bike packing setup that suits your needs, your bike, and your riding style. The two-piece Escapist Saddle Bag Large includes a holster that keeps it securely in place, while the waterproof bag is perfect for carrying larger items. Covered air purge holes increase compression and stability while releasing pressure.

Ensure a safe clearance of at least 18 cm (7 inches) between your rear tyre and the seat rails to prevent any damage to you, your bike, or the product. For the Escapist Saddle Bag Large, refer to the illustration on the right for proper clearance (measurement should be taken with rear suspension fully compressed on full suspension bikes).
