Salsa and
Revelate Designs have teamed up to bring you a frame bag custom fit for your
Salsa El Mariachi or
Fargo. Revelate sews these bags from a high-tech heavy weight sail cloth that is stronger and resists water better than Condura or other nylons used for bags. The zippers have been sealed to help keep water out and your stuff dry. The top of the bag does have a port to run a hydration bladder tube out of so the bag isn't completely water-proof, if you are storing moisture sensitive equipment make sure you take appropriate measures to keep them dry.
The inside of the bag is lined with yellow nylon to help you better find small objects. The main pocket on the drive side of the bike has an internal divider to help with organization and it also gives the bag some structure. The non-drive side of the bag is good for smaller items that you might otherwise fit into a saddle bag.
Bag sizing and installation couldn''t be simpler! For the proper bag size just buy the bag that matched the size of your frame. Installing the bag is as simple as opening the velcro tabs and wrapping them around the frame tubes. You will have to remove any bottle cages you may have installed. If you don''t have a
Salsa El Mariachi or
Fargo, but still want a sweet bag you can check the
Salsa Bag Sizing Guide for complete measurements of each size.
The frame bag
will rub the finish on your frame especially if you ride in really sandy or dusty areas. If you like keeping your bike in showroom condition consider using a tape in areas where the tabs contact the frame.
