Named after the Italian word for Brick, Mattone is a water-resistant,
ultra-compact seat bag that attaches to the rails using the BOA® Closure
System. Unique zipper design allows
it to be accessed while on the bike, or to open like a book when removed
from the bike for easy access.
Mattone is for the cyclist looking to carry a spare tube, CO2,
Multi-Tool, and some cash in a discrete, water-resistant package. Internal divider holds ID, credit card or
cash while also protecting your tube from your multi-tool!
Seat bag users fall into two categories: Seat Roll aficionados and
seat bag users. Traditionally, seat
bags have been simple open spaces that allowed content to jangle about,
making noise and rubbing against each other. Often times a spare tube was pulled out
of a seat bag to reveal it was more full of holes than the tube being
replaced due to friction against a house key or multi-tool. With Mattone, we designed a layout
similar to a book, where the bag can fully open to hold the tube and CO2
cartridge on one side, separated by a padded ballistic nylon ‘page’
separating it from the other side where you can store an inflator head,
multi-tool, contact lens case, etc. The ‘page’ also contains a slot for a
credit card, ID, money, or house key.
The unique off-center Aquaguard Zipper allows the case to completely
open and lay flat when off the bike, while also allowing easy access to the
multi-tool and money/card slots when on the bike without risk of spilling
all the contents of the bag.
A high friction Hypalon strap with BOA® Closure completes the
package. Making more than 15x the
power of Velcro®, the BOA® Closure uses a ratcheting mechanism that will
not creep or loosen even under the most extreme vibration and impact. This ensures the Mattone will remain
‘high and tight’ under your saddle until you need to access it... no swinging,
swaying, or rattling... ever.
