Released this morning, the new Restrap Utility Hip Pack is a two-in-one bag that easily converts from a comfortable hip pack into a small handlebar bag in seconds. Find details and photos and learn about the complete Restrap Travel Range here…

Announced today as part of UK brand’s new Travel Range, the 6L Restrap Utility Hip Pack is a versatile bag that doubles as a hip pack or handlebar bag thanks to its clever folding back panel that allows the waist straps to be tucked away. It features a roll-top closure with a magnetic Fidlock buckle that reveals a fully waterproof internal compartment with a high-vis orange liner. Reflective detailing helps you be seen, and stretchy side pockets increase its capacity and facilitate quick access to things like snacks and tools.

In bum bag mode, the fully vegan Utility Hip Pack has an adjustable retention system to allow for a snug and personalized fit for a wide range of riders with 24″ to 54″ waist sizes. Used in handlebar bag mode, it attaches via two included Restrap Fast Straps around the handlebars and a cord around the headtube. The bag measures 240 millimeters (9.4 inches) across, enabling it to fit on most bars without interfering with the controls.
