Apidura Expedition Front Accessory Pack – 3.5L
The Apidura Expedition Front Accessory Pack is a 3.5 L, seam-welded waterproof front pocket that attaches to the new-generation Expedition Handlebar Pack and converts into a crossbody bag off the bike. It weighs 233 g and adds a roll-top main compartment, an internal zip pocket with key hook and an external mesh pocket to your setup.
Why a front accessory pack – and why this one
A handlebar roll is great for bulky kit, but small items – gloves, snacks, keys, valuables – get lost inside it, and you do not want to leave them on the bike when you stop. The Expedition Front Accessory Pack adds quick-access storage right where you can reach it:
- Extra capacity without another mount. It attaches securely to the front of the Expedition Handlebar Pack via Anchor Rails and adjustable webbing hooks, adding 3.5 L.
- Stuff-and-go storage. An external mesh pocket takes gloves, easy-access snacks and empty wrappers.
- Valuables stay with you. Unclip it and wear it on-body with the adjustable cord crossbody strap; keys and valuables sit in a zippered internal pocket with a key hook.
- Contents stay dry. RF-welded seams and a roll-top closure with magnetic seal make it 100% waterproof.
Who is it for?
- Bikepackers already using the new-generation Expedition Handlebar Pack who want more capacity and quick access at the front.
- Tourers and long-distance riders who want to take valuables with them when they leave the bike.
Please note: the Front Accessory Pack is not a standalone product – it is only compatible with the new-generation Expedition Handlebar Packs.
