Small Saddlebag

NEW! The Dill Pickle Small Saddlebag now has a padded camera insert to safely carry your DSLR camera (or anything else needing extra protection). Your ride photos never looked better!

The padded insert fits right into the interior of the small saddlebag, with a padded lid that closes under the drawcord for a secure but easy-to-access ride for one camera with lens attached. For more views of the camera insert in use, check out the review on Lovely Bicycle!

The Dill Pickle small saddlebag is similar to the large one in construction, but scaled down and more compact. It’s similar in weight to many small wedge-style seat pouches, but larger and much more versatile. It’s got plenty of room for some tools and spare tubes, plus some extra clothing and gear. It opens up just like the large one, and like the larger one, it’s designed to workwell even if it’s overstuffed.

The Small Saddlebag has a narrower, tapered profile that’s designed to stay out of the way of the rider’s legs and stay off the rear wheel even on bikes with low saddles.  It’s designed to be mounted either to loops on the back of the saddle or directly to the rails, and goes on and off quickly.

It’s roughly 7″ from front to back, and roughly 6 1/2″ from top to bottom.  The opening is roughly 6″x6″.  These are fairly rough measurements too, as it isn’t square in any direction. Internal capacity is approximately 2.8 liters when more or less full, but not stuffed. Not sure how big it really is? Check here.


The standard model  has mesh pockets on the sides that you can easily reach while riding, big enough to hold a water bottle or your arm warmers.  The mesh pocket on the lid is big enough for a jacket or sandwich.
Just like the larger model, the Small has reflective trim and closes with an easy-to-use side-release buckle with a clip to hold the extra strap length. The Standard Model in stock colors is $170.  Like all Dill Pickle products, these saddlebags are made by hand in Medford, Massachusetts, USA.

A Random Limerick: (if you don’t like it, click “refresh” for another one)

A cyclist ate beans every meal
Until gaseous pressure could he feel
And when next in a race
He was setting the pace
And he blew the whole pack off his wheel.
