Maximize your bike’s potential – with leather frame bags

Frame bags impress across the board. They stand out thanks to their clever design, their practical benefits for long-distance cyclists, their well-thought-out functionality, and their striking look, which turns each one into a little gem for your beloved touring bike. Whether classic or rustic, they fit every bike without exception and offer plenty of space for all sorts of things. Items like a repair kit, spare tube, a small tool set, and a first-aid kit fit effortlessly even into the smaller models, while provisions, maps, a smartphone, keys, and a wallet find a place in the larger models and never disappear from your sight.

Another plus: while our Gusti Leather frame bags come in many different shapes and sizes, they all use similar mechanisms for attaching to the bike frame. Using loops and straps sewn onto the bags, these bike bags are mounted directly on the frame and therefore require no additional mounting systems. For this reason, this rather eye-catching form of storage is also quite lightweight and ensures optimal weight distribution.

Goat leather, Cowhide leather, or Buffalo leather—which leather best meets your expectations?

In our selection, we offer frame bags made from various types of leather. You can choose between:

• Goat leather,
• Cowhide leather, and
• Buffalo leather.

Goat leather frame bags are usually a bit stiffer at first, but they become very supple and soft very quickly with regular use. Models made of Cowhide leather and Buffalo leather, on the other hand, are slightly more robust than those made of Goat leather due to their naturally stronger material. Even after some time, these leathers still feel a bit firmer in their structure, although they naturally become softer as well. So decide for yourself which leather best meets your expectations for your new frame bag.
