Toptube-Bag

Both bags are compact, waterproof top-tube bags with magnetic lid closures that provide quick access to snacks, smartphones, or tools while riding.

The Fuel-Pack is designed to be particularly lightweight and minimalist. It is either bolted directly to the bike or attached using rubberized straps and stays firmly in place.
The Toptube-Bag, on the other hand, offers a flexible solution with the Tube-Lock system for those who want to remove their bag quickly or switch it between different bikes. It is slightly larger, features an integrated smartphone holder on the lid, and offers a bit more storage space with 1.5 liters.

ORTLIEB products stand for durability and repairability. The Toptube-Bag is manufactured in our factory in Heilsbronn, Germany. We source materials locally, regionally, or internationally depending on what meets our high standards. We invest time in development to ensure the functionality of every detail.

Thanks to long-lasting materials, the bag is a reliable companion. Its lifespan puts the purchase price into perspective, especially since we offer a five-year warranty on our products. A wide range of repair and upgrade options further improves the price-performance ratio.

Repair before replacement: Every product is designed to be easy to repair and can, in most cases, be serviced by our Customer Service team in Heilsbronn. This extends its lifespan and conserves resources.

Yes, the Toptube-Bag is suitable for mounting on carbon frames.

The Toptube-Bag is mounted easily and securely to the top tube using the Tube-Lock system. If your frame has threaded eyelets, you can screw the bag directly onto them. Without threads, you use the rubberized O-straps, which wrap flexibly around the top tube and hold firmly in place. The bag can then be clicked on and off with one simple movement. Optional accessories such as the offset plate or longer O-straps allow mounting on special frame shapes.

The Toptube-Bag is designed to stay securely in place even on gravel roads or during vibrations. Thanks to the magnetic closure mechanism and non-slip mounting, it sits firmly on the top tube and does not move sideways.

The Toptube-Bag is manufactured in Heilsbronn, Germany, standing for genuine “Made in Germany” quality. Every production step, from material cutting to final inspection, takes place in our own facilities. Materials are sourced locally, regionally, or internationally according to strict requirements. Our high standards for raw materials extend the product’s lifespan and conserve resources.

More about Made in Germany

ORTLIEB products are extremely robust because we use high-quality materials and permanently weld all seams. This eliminates the need for stitching or bonding, and all connections are at least as strong as the material itself. If something does get damaged, holes can be safely rewelded by us or by our authorized service partners.
