Cockpit Bag
From €80,-
The Cockpit Bag is the place to put all your snacks, tools, phone, earbuds or other small items that you could need during long distance riding. I designed it so that it can be opened with one hand so you can keep the other one safely on your handlebars. Apart from obligatory trailside chocolate bars, a big 6,7 inch smartphone will still fit inside this bag. Most importantly though, you can open and close it with one hand while riding, without the bag losing form.

The fabrics I use are water resistant, but the process of sewing them together creates small holes every time the needle pierces the fabric. Therefore these bags are never 100% waterproof. In any case I recommend using small drybags to keep your most important gear dry.
Anecdotally, I trust my phone to go inside the Frame Bag without using an extra dry bag. Generally everything stays pretty dry and also dries out relatively quickly after a night outside in the rain. Gear that is made of water absorbing fabric (like some gloves or a neck gaiter) will often soak of most of the moisture inside and the rest of your gear will stay relatively dry.
