Actually, this happened last year, but I went hiking on Mt. Shakagatake in Suzuka. Usually, I drive to the trailhead, but this time I planned to get there by bicycle and then go for a hike. I pedaled hard all the way to the trailhead on my bike, but I was already exhausted by the time I arrived. I briefly thought about just going home, but I decided to push myself a bit further to climb the mountain, and I ended up having a great time, experiencing the mountain in a completely different way—even though it’s one I hike often—and enjoying nature even more.
There is a saddle bag that is perfect for such "Bike to Hike" adventures. It is the RAWLOW MOUNTAIN WORKS / Bike’n Hike Bag. As the name suggests, it is a saddle bag that seamlessly connects biking and hiking; you can attach it to your bike while riding, and carry it on your back when you step away from the bike.
As expected from two designers who have fully enjoyed nature through both mountain sports and cycling, this saddle bag is packed with clever features.
And now, new colors have joined the lineup for this convenient Bike’n Hike Bag.
【RAWLOW MOUNTAIN WORKS】
Bike’n Hike Bag F/W New Color
Color : Ash / Moss / Walnut / Bluegray
Price : ¥16,000 (excl. tax)
It can be used as a saddle bag when riding, and as a backpack when you get off the bike, go train-hopping, or go hiking. It is also packed with many other useful features.
With a maximum capacity of 10 liters, it’s large enough to store all the items you need for touring or light hiking. You can also use the drawcord on the top of the bag to secure a jacket or sandals.
It is also equipped with a pocket, so you can store items you reach for frequently for smooth access. There is also a key ring inside the pocket.
The tail light attachment loop and the bungee cord are woven with reflective material, ensuring excellent visibility at night.
It is very convenient not only for Bike to Hike but also for touring and train travel.
In addition to the new colors, we have a wide range of color variations available, such as previous season's colors like Forest Green and Black, as well as models made of lightweight and weather-resistant Black Heather or X-Pac fabric, and the Paper Sky model, so you should be able to find the perfect color for your bike.
Of course, Circles carries other RAWLOW MOUNTAIN WORKS items as well, so please take a look at those too.
