Attaching the Bandito Bicycle Bag to your bicycle is easy using the two 9″ Swift Straps included with your purchase.
For attachment to your bicycle saddle
Feed the Swift Straps through the slots in the webbing that are closest to the center of the bag–you’ll find that the spacing is a perfect match for the standard spacing of the saddle bag attachment loops on a Brooks or Berthoud saddle. We stock the Velo Orange Saddle Loop Set, an after-market attachment option for saddles without integrated saddle loops.
To mount the Bandito to the bicycle handlebars
Feed the two Swift Straps through the slots in the webbing closest to the outside edges of the bag, and attach the straps directly to your handlebars.
Whether attaching to your bars or on your seat, use the shock cord strap that feeds through the daisy chain to secure the bag around the seat-post or stem. It will prevent the bag from swaying or bumping upward.

Bandito Saddle bag
The Bandito bag was easy to mount on my saddle. My only issue is that the plastic sheet used to keep the bag's shape does not fit very well, it appears to be about 1/4 to 1/2 inch too big. Otherwise, this is a great bag.
Coffee Outside Kit
I had a pleasant experience purchasing from Swift, so I decided to place an additional order. I’ve got a Kestral on the way. ☺️ Regarding the Bandito bag: I really like the build quality and the craftsmanship. This thing looks great and is perfectly constructed—it looks pretty sturdy too. I’m really pleased because it fits my coffee kit perfectly. I currently stash my Snowpeak 750ml boiling pot in the bag (the Snowpeak stacks/stores the burner and fuel). The whole kit is pretty bulky, but fits in the cylindrical shape of the bag with a little bit of finesse. I’m really happy with the location of the opening of the bag (attached to my saddle on a 55cm Sam Hillborne) because it still holds the contents even when it’s wide-open. There’s even enough space for tools, patch kit, and a couple of inner tubes. I couldn’t be happier with the build quality of this bag and I’m looking forward to many years of fun bike adventures with it.
Perfect size
Perfectly sized for standard daily ride necessities. Can also hold a few beers if that falls under your ride necessities.
Snacksl
Absolutely clutch bag. Works great as a handlebar bag on my vintage road bike for road snacks and patch kit.
