It's hard to ignore the fact that handlebars are getting wider. The Wide Boy Handlebar Bag is our solution to the shift towards an increasing cockpit area. We still have the two one-wrap straps securing the bag firmly in place. A shock cord toggle at the back of the bag wraps around the head tube to reduce movement whilst riding. There are now three bar mount options should you need to shuffle one of the straps across to accommodate another piece of riding equipment. The main compartment has a 4.8 litre cylinder shaped volume with a 0.6mm Polypropylene wall, this adds structure to the overall body of the bag. The YKK AquaGuard® zip helps shelter the contents from the elements. The main zip has been reinforced to allow the rider to access the bag one handed while riding, very useful for descending. This pocket is finished off with a crescent zipper pull making it easy to grab on rough ground. The webbing across the front panel allows the rider to mount a light on the front of the bag. The shock cord assembly is wider on the WIDE BOY so you get more carry options here. There are two mesh pockets on the side for storing your litter on the move. They are both retained with an adjustable shock cord toggle. Includes 1 pair of BLOC Handlebar Bag Spacers. Summary: Sometimes bigger is better! This Wide Boy Handlebar Bag is Manufactured to order in Melbourne Australia, please check our current production lead times.

Care Instructions

If you can't get your skingrowsback product looking good with a simple hose down we recommend hand washing with a mild detergent if required, dry in the shade only.

Do not machine wash, machine dry, or iron. Avoid pressure washing and drying in direct sun light.

Here are some useful suggestions for maintaining your skingrowsback product. Even though the slightly over engineered nature of these products will mean they last a long time a couple of basic rules to follow will keep them lasting even longer.

Washing.

When it comes to washing there are two ways you can approach this. Primarily for our on bike products the most effective way is to use a hose to remove the bulk of the dirt and mud. Try to avoid using a pressure washer as this can do more harm than good. Different colours will have different results, the brighter the colour the more difficult it will be to keep clean for obvious reasons.

If the product you are washing has a stiff component to it please DO NOT wash it in the washing machine, this will cause the structure to be compromised. These products include:

Understanding the materials we use for our products will help you care for them in an optimal way. Almost all our products use materials that have a DWR coating (Durable Water Repellent) on the outer layer. Over time this will wear off with factors like abrasion, fibre stress, prolonged UV exposure and detergents. This doesn't mean that we should totally shelter these products, but if we start with an understanding of what has the potential to cause damage then we can work around them. 

Zips

Using zips is pretty self explanatory, you pull it one way to open and the opposite way to close.

You can avoid stress on the teeth of the zip if you hold the product together when zipping it up. Pushing any obstructions away from the zip slider as you close it can avoid a jam, lightweight materials like jackets are notorious for this. Removing dirt, mud and particularly sand from the surface of the zip can reduce the risk of damage when opening and closing. All our on bike products use a YKK PU coated zip this offers a degree of water repellency, it's also easy to wipe down before use.

Zip lube is another great way to prolong the life of your zip. Yes, zip lube. Apply a small amount to the teeth of the zip occasionally for smoother running zips.

Spray Before You Play.

Before you use your skingrowsback product we recommend using a water shield spray, this not only repels water but will reduce the amount of dirt that sticks to the surface. Follow the instructions on the container for the best results.

 

We hope you have found this information useful and that your skingrowsback products exceed your expectations.
