Revelate Designs Mag-Tank

$58.99

This bag can be purchased with the
Revelate Bag Me Gift Pack

The Revelate Designs Mag-Tank takes a new twist on top tube bags. Instead of a zippered opening, access to the bag is by a smartly contoured top flap held in place by a magnetic buckle with mechanical engagement (read – the magnet aids in closure, while load is placed on a connection). It will not unintentionally open and spill your gummy bears when you end up in the trees with your bike upside down like a conventional magnetic closure would.


Overview

Our inspiring review is coming soon, for now, here is what Revelate says:

Twist And Shout

The Revelate Designs Mag-Tank takes a new twist on top tube bags. Instead of a zippered opening, access to the bag is by a smartly contoured top flap held in place by a magnetic buckle with mechanical engagement (read – the magnet aids in closure, while load is placed on a connection). It will not unintentionally open and spill your gummy bears when you end up in the trees with your bike upside down like a conventional magnetic closure would.

You can easily open the bag one handed by pulling outward on the cord loop and you have access to the whole top of the bag. To close, just flick the flap down and the buckle self-engages!

Compared to our standard Gas Tank, the Mag-Tank is just a hair smaller to prevent leg movement from hitting the edge of the flap opening.

Please note – while the cover to this bag is designed to shed rain and spray, due to the large panel opening it is not a sealed bag or waterproof bag.

Great bag!

Love this top tube bag. I can fit my keys, phone, and small snacks and small sunscreen. Secure fit and no moving around or noise. Magnetic closure super easy to close with one hand.

Revelate Design Mag Tank Bag

Just took it on my first bike packing trip, it was really handy to have because it allowed me to have easy access to some essentials like my sunglasses and my snacks. It straps well onto the frame so it was very stable even with things inside. The latch magnetic buckle made it so easy to open and close the bag also. I would highly recommend over any other top tube frame bags out there.

Great bike bag and service!

The pack is great! It fits securely onto the top tube and doesn't wiggle around. The top flap snaps securely into place but is opened easily for quick access to snacks/tools/etc. The shop was great with helping me out.

A bit small

Magnetic buckle works well, but it seems significantly smaller than the regular gas tank.

Perfect on the flat top

Perfect on the flat top tube of a Giant Defy Advance 1. A great addition for longer rides when you're jersey pockets are full and you need to carry that little bit extra. Easily fits my phone, credit card wallet & glasses case with enough room for a cliff bar and a couple of energy gels.
