Apidura Expedition Handlebar Pack

Available from supplier ONLY - Delivery time 3-7 days.

Apidura Expedition Handlebar Pack – 9L or 14L

No rack. No bounce. Just ride.

The Expedition Handlebar Pack is a rackless, roll-top storage solution built for road touring, endurance events, and everyday commuting. Whether you're crossing continents or commuting to the office, it gives you waterproof, stable storage right up front—without the weight or hassle of a front rack.

Available in 9L or 14L, this bag features dual roll-top closures for flexible packing, and a hands-free air release valve so you can compress bulky layers or sleeping gear quickly and neatly. Welded seams ensure complete waterproofing, and reinforced Hypalon panels at the contact points prevent abrasion and boost stability.

It mounts directly to your handlebars using a reinforced strap system that improves handling and keeps your front end tidy, even when the road gets rough. Add the Apidura Accessory Pocket for easy-access storage without sacrificing aero or handlebar space.

"I always keep my sleep system in the handlebar pack - it's something I don't need during the day, so it can just stay in place there until it's sleep time."

Materials

The Expedition Handlebar Pack is cut from a three-layer laminate fabric that was developed specifically for Apidura. The material is lightweight and is highly resistant to tears and abrasion. Notably, it’s welded together at the seams, creating a watertight seal that ensures the top tube bag remains completely waterproof.

APIDURA

We’re an independent, family-run business of cyclists, makers and problem solvers, brought together by a shared mission to find better ways to explore the world by bike.

Apidura was born from necessity; pioneering ultralight, rackless packing systems to help us take our love of cycling further and allow riders to unlock their instinct for adventure. As devoted adventure cyclists, we design with our fellow riders in mind, creating products that address genuine needs and bring new value to the bikepacking scene. We create the best packs we can, using technical materials and precision crafting techniques – and when we find a way to improve them we do so straight away and without fanfare. We don’t do ‘seasons’, limited editions or discount our gear – we simply create the best possible technical bikepacking gear that’s built to last.

About Us

Though we’re a bike shop that sells, builds and fixes bicycles, they’re really just the means to an end; albeit a beautifully designed means to an idyllic end. Our job most importantly is to encourage as many people as we can to get out and ride for transport and enjoyment. We'd love to make riding a bike as commonplace as your morning cup of coffee, which by the way is our other obsession.
