Rocket Pocket Saddle Bag

Two key features set the Rocket Pocket apart from other saddle bags: It features a slim, floating pocket designed to keep your inner tube separated from the sharp edges of your multi-tool and is a great pocket for small items like tube patches or a spare $20. The Rocket Pocket also features a cleverly designed hinged-flap on the underside of the bag. Unique to VéloColour bags this allows easy access to your most needed item, the multi-tool, even while the bag is strapped tightly in place. We guarantee there is no bag like it!

• Highly water-resistant materials and a waterproof zipper keep your tools dry and protected from the elements.

• The foam padded top surface protects the bag and saddle rails from unwanted abrasion and rattling.

• Mounting is done simply with a polyurethane strap. It keeps the saddle bag tightly locked in place and will never fail, wear out or clog with mud.

The Rocket Pocket is 100% sewn in our Toronto shop using 95% North American produced materials. Highly water-resistant materials and a waterproof zipper keep your tools dry and protected from the elements. The foam padded top surface protects the bag and saddle rails from unwanted abrasion and rattling, with a polyurethane strap that keeps the saddle bag perfectly locked in place. It’s the same strap we use for all of our bags because they’re easy to use, don’t slip, and last a lifetime.

Buy it on it’s own, or go for the fully loaded option

We've picked a few of our favourite tools to load up your bag and give you a 10% discount on the combo.

• Tire Levers - we’ve chosen Campagnolo’s perfectly designed levers for our loaded bags. Slim shape, super tough composite material and gentle on your carbon and alloy rims.

• Multi Tools - Leyzne V and SV series tools. The V series are machined steel tool bits with Black Anti-Corrosion technology and the SV series is machined from high-grade stainless steel, both have aluminum side plates. We currently have three sizes available:

  V PRO 7: Hex 3/4/5/6mm, Torx T10/T25, Phillips

  SV PRO 11: Hex 2/2.5/3/4/5/6/8mm, Torx T10/T25/T30, Phillips

  V PRO 13: Hex 2/2.5/3/4/5/6/8mm, Torx T10/T25/T30, Phillips, Alloy Chain breaker, Link storage

• Pull strap tight when mounting. If it moves, pull it tighter. These bags shouldn’t move or rattle.

• Orient the strap with VC logo facing out on the RH side of the bag and tuck the loose end through the strap loop.

• These bags work best when packed full (but not overstuffed). Place tube on non-hinged side of the pocket to avoid scrunching of the bag when strap is tightened.

• To ensure your multitool is easily accessible, pack the bag first, then, using the hinged flap, tuck your multi-tool into the bag after attaching it to your saddle.

• 1000D Cordura, X-Pac VX21 and Polyurethane/Nylon Strap

• Interior is made from 100% recycled and repurposed waterproof materials so the colours and texture will vary

The Rocket Pocket comes in three standard sizes perfect for all types of riding including off-road with a dropper post. Interior dimensions are 7cm x 11cm (heights vary according to the size). To make it super simple, the bag name = the bag height (25 =25mm, etc.).

Pack an inner tube, a pair of tire levers and your favourite multi-tool. Stepping up a size from the smaller bag will give added room for Co2 or larger sized tubes.

• 25: Designed to fit standard road inner tubes of 18-25mm or a light 28mm tube. (2.5 cm x 8 cm x 12 cm)

• 35: Designed for a larger cyclocross or mid-sized tube of about 35mm, depending on your tube choice. (35mm x 80 mm x 120 mm)

• 45: Designed for all your gravel riding needs with the extra room for bigger tubes, plugs and whatever else you want to carry. (45 mm x 80mm x 120 mm)

Wipe or hose off if dirty. Don’t launder.
