CARRADICE Super C Audax Saddlebag (Cycle Hatena Bespoke Model) | A Classic Saddlebag Fusing British Tradition and Practicality
A special edition crafted with British artisan skill and Cycle Hatena's dedication.
This is a special model bespoke by Cycle Hatena, based on the classic "Super C Audax Saddlebag" by the British brand CARRADICE, established in 1932.
While retaining the traditional waxed cotton duck's texture and excellent durability, the standard model's side flap pockets have been replaced with practical mesh pockets. This adds the convenience of quick access to frequently used items during touring.
Combining a classical appearance with modern usability, its design is perfect for Randonneurs and touring bikes, as well as chromoly bikes and commuter bikes. It's a British-made saddlebag you'll want to keep for a long time, enjoying the deepening texture as you use it.
