Length, Width & Depth Dimensions of the Aeroclam Lower Sections

  Cyckit is not a bike shop as such so don’t have the items on hand many customers enquire about fitting but the below info will give you guidance. We also don’t have a measurement in litres but all the Aeroclam lower halves are the same length/width in dimension so they fit the top sections.Images of lower sections in inches & millimetres below. Measurements include extra space inside the top section - meaning the lower sections' content [tubes] can protrude past the top edge of the lower section and still be consumed by the extra 10mm [0.39 inches] space inside...

2/ Will the Contents rattle inside the Hardshell of the Aeroclam Bike Saddle Bag?

2/ Will the Contents rattle inside the Hardshell of the Aeroclam Bike Saddle Bag?

The key to keeping your content silent is slight compression packed as per instructions there is no rattling.  It’s recommended to use rolled Plastic Lunchwrap, Bubblewrap, Cloth or Latex Gloves to take up any unwanted space inside the Aeroclam. As seen here, the LunchWrap over the top of content prevents the content connecting and nullifies any rattling.  You can of course load whatever you require into the Aeroclams but make sure any unwanted space is taken up by the above. Should you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact Pat via email info@cyckit.co.nz. Thank you!

3/ Is the Aeroclam Bike Bag waterproof?

3/ Is the Aeroclam Bike Bag waterproof?

Any reports where water has entered the Aeroclam has been via water being thrown up...

4/ Is the Rubber Latch up to doing the Job of the Zipper?

4/ Is the Rubber Latch up to doing the Job of the Zipper?

The latch on the Aeroclam bike saddle bag is more than up to the job of the zipper. It is made of very durable rubber that has excellent UV qualities. The latch eyelets also have to be stretched over the plastic buttons with some resistance, so will NEVER pop undone in motion as long as they are secured/seated properly in the first place. When testing the durability of the rubber latch eyelets, I personally slid the latch over the plastic buttons over 500 times on one Aeroclam. This equates to 250 punctures and the rubber compound held it’s composition perfectly. If...
