So everything stays safe and secure and yet can be accessed quickly.

Zefal Z Adventure C frame bags



 

The Zefal Z Adventure bags with the abbreviation C were designed as companions for longer cycling adventures. Whether on the road or off-road, on gravel, by mountain bike or trekking bike. The Zefal Z Adventure C2, C3 and C4 are available in 3 capacities and can be mounted on all bikes thanks to the removable and adjustable straps. The capacity is enough to pack a jacket, a phone, a power bank, a pair of gloves and much more in addition to the repair kit. An additional inner pocket for mobile phones or small items makes access even easier and quicker without any problems. Depending on your needs, you can choose the bags to match the frame.
