Silca Mattone | Waterproof Bike Bag with BOA Closure

The Silca Mattone Saddle Bag with BOA Capture System offers an elegant yet secure design suitable for any riding style. Designed with two distinct categories of seat bag users in mind - seat roll aficionados and traditional seat bag users - the Mattone introduces a new approach to the typical seat bag.

Traditionally, seat bags have been simple open spaces that allow contents to rattle and rub against each other. This often leads to a spare tube stored in the bag becoming damaged due to friction against keys or tools. The Mattone, however, features a layout akin to a book, with the bag fully opening to hold the tube and CO2 cartridge on one side, separated by a padded ballistic nylon divider. The other side can accommodate an inflator head, multi-tool, contact lens case, and other essentials, with an additional pocket for storing a credit card, ID, money, or house key.

The unique off-center YKK Aquaguard zipper allows the bag to fully open and lay flat when off the bike, while also providing easy access to the multi-tool and money/card slots when mounted, without the risk of spilling the contents. A wide Hypalon strap combined with a BOA closure system ensures a secure and hassle-free attachment to the bike's seat rails. Simply push to lock the BOA and turn the dial clockwise to tighten the steel cable, then pull out on the BOA dial to unlock and loosen the bag.

The edge-to-edge zipper design of the Mattone optimizes the internal space, allowing for on-and-off-the-bike access to a surprisingly spacious saddle bag. The internal divider keeps sensitive items like tubes separate from hardened steel tools, protecting them from potential damage. Despite its compact size, the Mattone can accommodate a tube, two CO2 cartridges, a regulator, multi-tool, tire levers, and essential items like a credit card or keys, making it the perfect solution for riders who want to pack everything they need without having to wear it on their back or deal with the bulk of larger bags.

The Mattone's defined rectangular shape, dubbed "Mattone" (Italian for "brick"), allows it to tuck neatly under the saddle, providing a discreet and streamlined appearance without sacrificing storage capacity. This makes the Mattone suitable for every riding discipline, from road cycling to mountain biking and beyond.
