In the bustling world of cycling gear,

where every product seems to come with more bells and whistles than you’d ever need, the Basic Bar Bag stands in quiet defiance. It’s not here to impress with gimmicks or flash—it’s here to do what needs to be done. Its design is elegantly straightforward: one compartment, a generous splash of space, and a commitment to carrying your essentials without fuss or fanfare.

Simplicity That Speaks Volumes

Crafted from a weather resistant ripstop fabric, the Simple Bar Bag delivers durability without compromise. Its single soft-shell compartment carries more than meets the eye. With 1.2 liters of space, it’s the perfect size for your essentials—whether that’s a phone, a few snacks, or the all-important multi-tool. Differing from our hard-shell bar bags, this bag bends and folds as you pack it.

The Versatile Companion

The Simple Bar Bag might be minimal, but it’s anything but boring. Its adjustable straps and stem tether cord make it easy to fit any handlebar configuration. Multiple mounting options give you the flexibility to secure it the way that suits your bike best.

The Art of Doing, Simplified

We often talk about “The Art of Doing” at ALMSTHRE. It’s about embracing the unexpected and getting lost in the joy of the ride. So, what are you waiting for?
 The Simple Bar Bag is your new best friend for adventures big and small. Grab yours today, hop on the bike, and let curiosity guide your next adventure. Because sometimes, the best things really do come in the simplest packages

Exploring Big Sky Country Ahead of the Belgian Waffle Ride

Belgian the F*ck Up: BWR Montana Brings the Pain to Bozeman

The inaugural Belgian Waffle Ride Montana didn’t just arrive in Bozeman—it kicked the door down, left tire tracks through the living room, and poured a cold recovery beer on the way out. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Montana’s vast gravel playgrounds, the first-ever BWR MT delivered a day that tested the sadists of the saddle and gave us the “Hell of the Bozone” in all its glory.
