Setup and Installation

The NEWBOLER Bicycle Bag is designed for convenient installation and removal. Follow these steps to securely attach your bag to your bicycle rack:

1. Prepare the Bag: Ensure the bag is open. If storing items, place them inside before sealing.
2. Seal the Bag: Grab the ends of the bag opening, straighten them, and fold down 3-4 times.
3. Secure Top Buckles: Fasten the front and back clasps (nylon buckles) on both sides of the rolled-down top to secure the closure. Then, fasten the top buckle that connects the two sides of the roll-top.
4. Attach to Rack (Top Hooks): Insert the dual thicken hooks directly into your bike's rear rack or front fork frame. These hooks allow for quick attachment and detachment.
5. Secure Bottom (Hook and Loop): Fix the hook and loop fastener strap located at the bottom of the bag around a rod or part of the bike frame underneath the rack for added stability.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and performance of your NEWBOLER Bicycle Bag, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: The bag features a large opening and smooth internal surface, making it easy to clean. Wipe the exterior and interior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Drying: Allow the bag to air dry completely before storing to prevent mold or mildew. Do not use direct heat sources for drying.
• Storage: Store the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
• Inspection: Periodically check the buckles, straps, and seams for any signs of wear or damage. Address any issues promptly to maintain waterproofing and security.

Troubleshooting

• Issue: Water leakage into the bag.
  Solution: Ensure the roll-top closure is folded down tightly 3 to 5 times and all buckles (side and top) are securely fastened. Check for any punctures or tears in the PVC material.
• Issue: Bag feels unstable or loose on the bike rack.
  Solution: Verify that the dual thicken hooks are fully and correctly inserted into the bike rack frame. Ensure the hook and loop fastener strap at the bottom of the bag is securely wrapped around a stable part of the bike frame. Adjust the position of the bag on the rack for better balance.
• Issue: Difficulty fastening buckles in cold weather.
  Solution: The latches are designed to be durable even in cold conditions. If you experience stiffness, gently manipulate the buckles to ensure they engage properly. Avoid forcing them.

User Tips

• Choose the Right Capacity: Consider your typical carrying needs. While the 10L bag is compact, some users find the 20L more suitable for daily use or if they anticipate needing more space. The 10L might feel smaller than expected for some.
• Verify Capacity: Some users have noted that the 10L bag feels larger, potentially closer to 15-20 liters, offering more space than initially perceived.
• Cold Weather Performance: The bag's latches have been reported to hold up well and not crack in cold temperatures, making it reliable for winter cycling.
• Comfort for Carrying: If you plan to frequently carry the bag off the bike as a shoulder bag, consider adding extra padding to the shoulder strap for enhanced comfort.
