Description
When a weekend loop turns into a five-day traverse of the backcountry, the Great Basin Saddlebag is the bag riders reach for. Giant Loop built this rackless saddlebag to swallow 68 liters of gear without a single side rack, pannier frame, or drilled hole in your subframe. It sits low and centered over the rear fender, so the load stays balanced through rocky switchbacks and sand washes instead of pulling the bike sideways at speed.
- 68 liters of packable volume, enough for a multi-day self-supported ride with tools, camp gear, and food.
- Built from rugged Bomb Shell materials with double-reinforced ballistic nylon in the high-wear impact zones.
- Waterproof, mudproof, snowproof, and dustproof when used with the included Dry Pods, so a river crossing or surprise storm is not a gear-ruining event.
- Includes a set of three RF-welded, air-valve Dry Pods that organize gear and seal out moisture on their own.
- Hot Springs Heat Shield keeps the bag material away from hot pipes and headers.
- Roughly 6 pounds dry weight with all components, light enough that you forget it is back there until you need it.
- Expandable with a Fandango Tank Bag, Tillamook Dry Bag, or Possibles Pouches when the trip runs longer than planned (sold separately).
Fitment is about as universal as soft luggage gets: the Great Basin straps on to virtually any sport, sport-touring, scrambler, standard, naked, adventure-touring, or dual-sport motorcycle with footpegs, no bike-specific mounting kit required. In black, it disappears against most bikes and hides trail grime between cleanings. IPD Racing stocks the Great Basin for riders who want big-trip capacity without adding rigid boxes to a bike built to be light on its feet.
