Overview

Drop it like it’s hot?

The Vole is designed for modern full-suspension bikepacking trips when using a dropper seat post. (if you still have enough tire clearance) It features several innovations to stabilize and compact the load without adding any external hardware. The Vole carries just enough to accommodate a minimalist kit for trips focused on the ride.

A key feature is our Indie-Rail attachment system. This a progression from conventional bikepacking bag mounts where the rail straps are fixed to the top-center of the bag. With Indie-rail, each rail is cinched down to the sides of the bag greatly reducing bag sway without any additional hardware. We combine this with a rigid internal structure and active camming buckles to prevent straps from loosening and slipping on rough terrain or wet conditions.

The bag is stiffened on all sides including an external plastic bottom sheet which protects the bottom of the bag and a composite internal top sheet which provides a solid and stable platform for the strap points. For full and heavy loads, an included strap is hitched around the saddle rails to use with the rear compression metal hook. This adds significant vertical stability due to the higher attachment point than the one on the bag itself.

For use with a dropper post – you must use the included Wolf Tooth Valais clamp.

Due to space constraints where the bag mounts, we only advise using the Vole without the Valias clamp (normal seatposts) on mellow terrain such as gravel and road cycling.

Compatible with Cirrus Cycles Body Float suspension seatposts (without using clamp).

    Revelate Designs Vole Seat Bag - Black Camo 25mm

    I bought several Revelate Designs bags. The Vole was like the others: ‘Top of the Available Choices’ regarding BikePacking Bags. Service regarding BikeShopHub was also excellent, so highly recommended for both the bags and BikeShop Hub!
