{"product_id":"deuter-mondego-sb-16","title":"Mondego SB 16","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Deuter Mondego SB 16 is a seat-post saddle bag for bikepacking and touring: a strapped harness that holds a removable 16 litre roll-top dry bag behind your saddle. It is the easy way to carry an overnight kit without fitting racks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRiders getting into bikepacking, and road and gravel riders who want more than a jersey pocket. Deuter rate it five out of five for road and gravel and for touring, and four for bikepacking. It suits a two-day gravel loop through the Scenic Rim or a credit-card tour along the Great Victorian Rail Trail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eFitting it to your bike\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe harness mounts without tools: two straps wrap the seat post and two buckle straps clip to the saddle rails, then the dry bag slides in and buckles to the harness at the sides. Check you have enough seat post showing above the frame and room between the saddle and the rear wheel for a 55 cm long bag, especially on smaller frames or full-suspension bikes. Deuter recommend protecting the seat post with film or a foam pad where the straps sit, as grit under a strap can dull the paint over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eCapacity and what fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e16 litres takes a sleeping bag and liner, or a tent body and your camp clothes. The roll-top compresses the dry bag around what is inside, so a half load sits as tight as a full one. A bungee cord and mesh pouch on top hold a rain jacket or snacks you want without opening the bag. Recommended load is 2-5 kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eWeatherproofing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main fabric is 420D polyamide with a double PU coating rated to a 1500 mm water column, and the roll-top keeps rain out of the opening. That handles road spray and a wet afternoon; for days of heavy rain, pack electronics in their own bag inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eStability when loaded\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour mounting points, a reinforced base and a roll-top that cinches the load down stop the bag swinging when you stand to climb. Pack the heaviest gear forward, close to the seat post.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarness plus removable 16 L roll-top dry bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTool-free mounting: two seat post straps, two saddle rail buckle straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBungee cord and mesh pouch on top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforced base; reflective details\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e420D polyamide, double PU coated, 1500 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e475 g; recommended load 2-5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eLooking after it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabrics are bluepass certified and finished without intentionally added PFAS.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Deuter","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":67692558778477,"sku":"10520110001OS","price":157.87,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0253\/1708\/1197\/files\/mondego-sb-16-0-black-377468aff4875981f4dccfdc02f5e6db.jpg?v=1792534101","url":"https:\/\/ozbackcountry.co.nz\/products\/deuter-mondego-sb-16","provider":"Oz Backcountry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
