Revelate Terrapin System 8L

The Revelate Terrapin System 8L is a bikepacking saddle bag where the holster stays on your seat post & the dry bag is removeable. Making it much easier to de-camp from your bike at the end of the day, and re-pack in the morning.

The terrapin is like it’s namesake – it has a protective shell holding your gear! And because a dry bag is used for storing your gear, everything inside it remains totally waterproof. And your terrapin’s shell cops all the mud & mess coming up from your rear tyre – so it doubles as a mudguard too!

This thoughtfully designed modular system will make your life easy when it comes to packing. There’s only one central strap you will need to secure the dry bag into the holster. And it is most definitely secure with this one strap.

Revelate have made this Terrapin System in 8L and also a massive 14L size which you can find here. However the best thing about this 8L size is how many small bike frames it fits. If you are someone who rides a small bike (like a 48cm or a 52cm frame) you will often have a hard time finding a saddle bag to fit. But the Terrapin with its solid holster keeps well clear of your tyre & can fit on very little seatpost. Making this an excellent seat pack to give a shot if you have had trouble finding something to fit in the past.
