The BRO handlebar bag is a handy and straightforward bag and is the original and best selling bag on AKIN’s product line. At 3.7 litres, the large sized BRO HB bag is designed to fit all the supplies you need for your longer adventures. Top it up with a frame or saddle bag and you get a minimal bikepacking setup for ultra distance racing or for warm weather bikepacking.

Its design has been improved over previous models making it closer to AKIN’s sustainable goals. The two main factors that determine a product’s sustainability are material sourcing and manufacturing as well as its lifespan. The outer material of the bags is the most exposed and therefore the most subject to failure. A thick cotton or nylon canvas gives the best properties to extend the life of the bags. For this bag, the patterns have been deconstructed and reconstructed in a mosaic-like manner to minimize the industrial waste generated during the manufacturing phase. The inner fabric is repurposed from utmost quality hot air balloon fabric cutouts, which is perfect for bag lining because it is water and oil repellent, lightweight, very durable and bright in colors, so you easily identify the items inside. 

The sides of the bag are used as pockets. The right side offers a zipped pocket for your smaller items, left side has a stretchy pocket made with deadstock fabric from cycling apparel production.  

The large model also features and elastic cord system to strap the extra layers as the day warms up.

A reflective logo and strip ensure good visibility on the trail or the road.
