A lot of cyclists use top tube bags for carrying some ride essentials. These could be a phone, snacks, gloves, tools, or a power bank for long rides. Zefal has introduced their latest version of a top tube bag with the Z Adventure T1 and T1 Bolt, a bag that uses 100% welded construction and a waterproof zip.
The Z Adventure T1 is a universal top tube bag that can be mounted to any bike of your choice… road, gravel, fat, cargo, townie, or MTB. Musical Carrying Bag
To help keep things in order inside the bag, the Z Adventure T1 is equipped with a key hook, an internal mesh pocket, and an integrated, unique cable channel. The channel is located in the center of the bag, giving the user the ability to run a USB charging cable to power or charge a light, cycling computer, or phone.
What initially caught our attention was the bottom of the T1 Bolt which has enough holes to pass as Swiss cheese. The T1 Bolt, uses the bike’s top tube mounting points for bolting it directly to the top tube – but those mounting bolts don’t always line up with where you want to mount the bag. We’ve seen other bags with a few different mounting options, but Zefal cut to the chase lining almost the entire bottom of the bag with mounting holes.
Retail: $44 (T1 and T1 Bolt)
