Looking to get a frame bag, top tube bag and eventually seatpack for longer gravel rides on my 2020 Giant Revolt Advanced 2. Wondering if anyone has any of Axiom's Oceanweave series as they look and feel fantastic, they're sold at my LBS and are good on the environment (apparently) . If anyone has any feedback or pics that would be great.
If you have any other bags you would suggest please let me know as well. Right now just look for a frame and top tube bag.
Any pics or Giant Revolts with your bag set up would be appreciated as well!
I looked at one in the store. It looked nice, but didn't have a lot of shape structure, so it might rub your leg. Shimano Pro Discovery, Topeak, Bontrager, Blackburn, and Apidura also make nice half/mini frame bags. Keep in mind that you'll want a side exit bottle cage (eg Elite Cannibal) for the front. Go 2.5L at the smallest.
I like the Ortlieb frame pack pack on my Trek 1120: it fills most of the triangle, but leaves room for a water bottle cage on the seat tube. The pack is waterproof and has an interior “load” strap that helps keep the sides from bulging. Installation was a breeze and it fits fairly well on my bike, though obviously it's not a custom-fitted bag or anything.
