This is the hipbag for off-road gravelers

Alé Cycling

When cycling, at the latest when riding long tours, you need to take a few things with you. Some provisions, repair materials or a rain jacket. Mountain bikers often carry these things in a hip bag - but this trend has not yet spread to gravel enthusiasts. There, skintight cycling pants are now rampant, which can also hold some luggage thanks to cargo inserts.

Gravel biking has not only conquered a firm place in the cycling universe as a vehicle category. Accessories are also becoming increasingly specific to this still young sport. Gravel-specific clothing is no exception to this rule.

Those who want to position themselves as gravel specialists with their clothing now have the option of wearing so-called long-distance cargo bibs. These are skin-tight cycling shorts with elasticated inserts on the thighs and back. These cargo inserts then hold bars, repair kit, the mobile etc. If you're looking for such pants, you'll find them at bike clothing brands such as Endura, Castelli or Gonso.
