Why We Like The Local Saddle Bags
The market is full of packs and saddlebags with dividers and pockets that help us stay organized but cut down on the amount of stuff we can carry. For its local Saddle Bags, Blackburn decided to go for sheer volume, which is great when we're headed to the grocery store.
The Local Saddle Bagsbwide-open spaces mean more carry capacity, 1585.62 cubic inches, to be exact. They're perfect for running errands. The bright orange color scheme makes us more visible on the road, as well. They are compatible with most standard bike racks but work best with Blackburns Interlock rack system, which locks with a key. Off the bike, the bags can be carried by the handles or by a convenient shoulder strap.

I appreciate the size and shape of this bag. The square base makes it convenient for carrying food. However, I would have preferred if it had secure straps for locking it to a bike rack.

Ill Fitting
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
The saddle bags do not fit my blackburn rack on a 29in heel bike... The panniers sit too far forward which means with every pedal, my heel hits the bag. At the same time, the other side of the bag gets stuck in the spokes! It broke a spoke.
