Challenge Honey 1.5L Saddle Bag

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"Plenty of room for my ride kit, but what really sets it apart is the feel. From the stitching to the way it sits under the saddle, it just elevates the whole ride experience."

The Challenge Saddle Bag is a rare blend of tradition and utility, handcrafted from vegetable-tanned leather and built to stand the test of time. Originally conceived in 1896, its current form delivers modern-day function while preserving old-world charm.

Designed to mount to saddles with built-in loops, the 1.5L version offers ample space for a full toolkit, tube, CO₂ inflator, patch kit, and compact pump. Buckles are cleverly integrated inside the bag’s structure, minimizing visual clutter and maximizing security. The bag’s distinctive wave shape and fan-like structure provide both lateral support and vintage-inspired character, all while reducing sway during dynamic rides.

Whether you're loading up for a long road day, bikepacking light, or simply seeking gear that tells a story, the Challenge 1.5L delivers rugged functionality, elegant design, and a legacy you can feel in every mile.
