An often-overlooked cycling accessory, cycling kit bags can make for a great alternative to the best cycling backpacks<\/a> if you\u2019re travelling to or from the start of a ride or race. They provide a compact, structured solution when you\u2019re heading on a riding holiday and can also be used for organising your kit while commuting.<\/p>\n

Here are six of the best cycling bags as tested by our experts.<\/p>\n

Five things to look for in a kit bag:\u00a0<\/h4>\n
  • Make sure the bag is large enough to carry what you need.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  • Decide if the way the bag has been divided into its respective sections works for you. Most will feature separate areas for storing clean and dirty kit.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  • You should consider if helmet storage is important. Helmets are odd shapes and they don\u2019t fit nicely into all bags, so you may have to carry it separately.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  • Make sure the bag is comfortable to carry when fully loaded. Virtually all use either shoulder straps or a carrying handle.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  • Consider if you need the bag to be weather-proofed if leaving it out in the elements.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>
