Nothing says Summer/Spring bummer like carrying a variety of items on your back while on a longer ride.
This is where the Brooks Millbrook and Glenbrook Holdalls come along.
You may venture the question, “how much do these Holdalls carry?” Well, we thought we’d give you a demonstration with Tom’s Geekhouse and a custom Surly we have on consignment.
Here’s the Geekhouse modeling the larger Glenbrook.
At 380 x 160 x 180 mms in faux leather with vinyl lining, and vegetable tanned leather trimmings.
One windbreaker, a pair of Mavic shoes, a tube, hand pump, tire levers with a little bit of wiggle room left over.
3RRR Custom Surly 8 speed rocking a Brooks Millbrook.
Brooks Holdall on a Brooks saddle. 200 x 150 x 160 mm. Faux leather with authentic leather trimmings.
What can THIS bag hold?
..flat fix kit, Chrome hoodie, and a Boston bicycle map!
A great Spring accessory. Stop by the shop and check it out!!
When it starts getting warmer, one of the best things to do is ride your bike for ever and ever without a big back pack. But what if you want to lock up? Where do you put a book? A tube? A snack?
That’s where these come in super super super handy:
Fabric Horse Half belt utility belt and 59 fanny, Super embroidered hip pouch, Wheelman & Co Hip Bag and Freight Hip Pouch.
So. You have a set of necessities that you carry that don’t fit into an over sized wallet. Okay. That’s fine. Check out the made in Philly Half Belt:
Cordura. Recycled vinyl interior. W-A-T-E-R-P-R-O-O-F! You get a cell phone holder and a large pocket that can accommodate a large book, snacks, several tubes or a variety of small reasonable items perfectly. And you get….
U GOT IT! U LOCK HOLSTER.
(Personal plug: this is the one I own and love dearly. It’s absolutely a summer time necessity if you like to bike places and read books.)
Okay, okay. So if that’s too much for you, check out the Fabric Horse 59er Fanny:
Waxed canvas fanny pack on a recycled seat belt, water resistant with three pockets to easily fit a wallet, a small point and shoot and some larger essentials in the main pocket.
Next, check out our Superb embroidered hip pouch:
Cordura (lightweight, durable, comfy) material.
Oh and look at that! A little see through pocket for those small essentials! And it says Superb on the outside! Ca-hewl! Fits a small U-Lock and is Made in USA!!!!
Freight bags are super super popular here at Superb. It’s no surprise that the Hip Pouches are also hot items.
Water resistant material, large pocket with flap top,and an adjustable hip belt to accommodate all types of dimensions. Made in San Fran.
Anyways. There’s a run down. The weather is going to get not lame for a few days starting tomorrow, it’s the perfect time to start preparation for Spring and Summer!
