BEST FRAME BAG
Price: £60.00 - £70.00 / From: Alpkit, alpkit.com
If you’re into bikepacking, and you’re from the UK, you’ll almost certainly have heard of Alpkit. The British brand was one of the first to offer a full set of soft luggage, and it is still a go-to for many aspiring adventurers looking for good value, bombproof kit.
The Possum is one of a range of frame bags made by Alpkit, and it’s the plain vanilla flavour in a range that also includes bags specifically designed for fat bikes, or even full custom options. With the exception of the waterproof, welded seam Rando range, all Alpkit’s bags are made in the UK at their factory near Nottingham, and the Possum is available in loads of diTherent colours, and long, medium and short sizes.
