United StatesSimple, great bag
I added this to my Velo Orange Pass Hunter recently. It has done a great job of making the bike more versatile - I can hold an extra bottle for long rides, or use it to hold those odd sized drinks that don't fit in a normal bottle cage, like plastic water bottles, travel coffee mugs and so on. It's also handy for storing my keys, wallet and phone or extra snacks if I need that. Overall a great little bag that cheaply adds a lot more practicality to basically any ride.
USGreat
Love this bag so much that I decided to purchase another, with a Kestrel. I have both of these attached with the molle system....the combination of bags work perfectly on the front of my Sam Hillborne. It's also worth noting that these can be opened/closed with one hand. Super convenient when trying to access things while riding.
USVersatile & Handy
This is another winner. Check my review on the Bandito bag. I really love the quality of the bag with how this attaches to the bike. I like that it’s versatile, giving you a number of ways to mount to the bicycle. My favorite feature is the ability to open and close the drawstring with one hand. I like to keep my cell phone and keys in this pouch while riding. I was so pleased with this bag, and the Bandito, that I decided to order two more bags from Swift. Planning to mount the Kestrel and two sidekicks on the front of the bike. ☺️�
USLove it!!
Love this stem pouch. Very well made. Durable. Looks great on my bike. Very happy!
United StatesMostly Squirrel Proof
On the first night of a four day expedition my riding mates and I encountered one of the most persistent red squirrels I’ve ever had the privilege of witnessing. It greeted us by promptly squatting on a less fortunate fellow’s phone and lunged at him when he shooed it away. The following morning we awoke to the sound of it trying to free the roadsnacks that my trusty stem pouch was holding. A few gnawed holes are evidence of the red squirrel’s defeat as it sought entry into the veritable food fortress that is the Sidekick. Happy to report the pouch held strong and I was grateful to have snacks ready at hand for the remainder of the journey!
