Kestrel Handlebar Bag - Redwood
If you need a handlebar bag for your gravel bike, old-school MTB, or in fact just any bicycle with a straight section on the handlebar, look no further than the Kestrel! The front zipper pouch is especially useful for just sticking your mobile phone in for easy access.

Disappointment
After getting my new gravel bike and wanting to support American companies I found out that swift is making their bags in Indonesia now. I get it...economy... whatever... the fact that youre outsourcing labor that could be used to make jobs in America to asia while charging more than made in America competitors just looks like a bunch of greed to me. won't be buying...sad days indeed
We wanted to let you know we that manufacture in both Indonesia and with a fantastic factory partner right here in Seattle, Washington. If you ever have questions about the country of origin on a specific product in our catalog feel free to reach out!

Yet another great Swift bag!
I love having this Kestrel bag in my collection. I have several Swift handlebar bags in my collection and each serves a somewhat different purpose. The Kestrel is great for day-long rides when you don’t need to bring the kitchen sink. It’s modest in size but surprisingly roomy in capacity. It also has great compartments to keep items separate and easy to grab. The lash tabs and daisy chain features make it very adaptable to attach extra do-dads, and the four lash points at the the top and bottom make it possible to lash this flat-ish bag to a bedroll or tent when backpacking. This modular feature is quite unique in the market and very appealing for those who might find it useful. Thanks Swift! You folks are genius. The only possible improvement I can think of would be a key clip on a ribbon to secure car keys.

Perfect size!
I now have two of these bags. They are compact and yet hold everything I need for a day out- tools, food, extra layers. And, I can pair the Kestrel with a side-kick stem bag for longer events. The nice long top zipper on the Kestrel opens wide for easy access, and the front pocket is perfect for my phone. Well-thought-out, Swift!!
