Founded in 2009 by Remi Clermont and Andre Stewart, the performance-wear label Café du Cycliste is well known for creating some of the best cycling apparel with an added French twist. The brand has now taken its first foray into the bikepacking bags market with a range of bags designed to carry riders and their essential cargo in style. The new Café du Cycliste lineup includes top tube, frame, saddle, tool and handlebar bags.
As with all the Café du Cycliste kit, like their recently released hiking inspired Outland gravel shoe, these bags look so good you may be reluctant to use them on your wet and muddy gravel adventures. However, they aren't all about appearance, Café du Cycliste say they also pack a spec to back up the looks and should deliver everything required for the best gravel bike adventures, and we had a delve into the new range to see what they are all about.
