Road Runner Bags

I've been saying for years that the Jammer is the best bag Road Runner Bags has ever created. Rolltop backpack sales numbers will prove me wrong, but I stay away from riding in backpacks these days, hence the pannier review.

My name is Matt, and I've been on the Road Runner Bags team since 2017. I operate our CNC machine and sew backpacks most days. Recently, I took some time off to bike down the Pacific Coast Highway. I started in Portland, Oregon, and ended in Northern California amongst the redwoods. I hope you enjoy the ride report and consider this route for yourself!

Trail crews nationwide work tirelessly to keep our local and backcountry trails in tip-top shape for trail users. Follow along to see what a trail stewardship looks like with the Mount Wilson Bicycling Association. Join MWBA every third weekend for a day in the dirt, maintaining multi-use trails in the Angeles National Forest!

If you are visiting Los Angeles or a local, ride across the 6th St Bridge into Boyle Heights and visit Esquina Bike Shop. If you are interested in hosting a workshop, art, or photo show, need a bike repair, or need an accessory for your rides, give Esquina Bicycle Shop a call 'cause Ollin has got you covered.

Occasionally, LAC and the ANF will close Glendora Ridge Road for construction or during major holidays. During that time, it becomes a cyclist's paradise consisting of epic mountain views, S-Curves, long gradual climbs, and a wild ride back down. GRR goes to Mt Baldy Village, where you can stop by the lodge for a Coke and even a burger, with plenty of veggie options.

We’re now offering a more affordable shipping method to our overseas customers.

A few months ago, I was contacted by Cindy Saldivar regarding an article she wrote and was picked up by Bicycling Magazine’s Emily Shiffer called, “How Cycling Changed Me”.

Los Angeles has a hub of cycling groups from Armed With A Bike to Trash Panda Cycling. All groups range from spicy to nice and chill. But one of those groups is doing something special for the LA cycling community that’s hosting some classic underground races. Meet Edin Barrientos and Victor Marquez from Chieflunes and inventors of Los Angeles Underground World of Cycling (LAUWC).

Last April 2021, I received an email from Mike Suiter with a beautiful photo of his new custom Fairlight Secan 2.0 gravel bike with a California Burrito adorning the bars. I love to receive pictures and reviews from customers, so beyond the photo, I scrolled.

Handmade in Southern California since 2010. Our multi-talented sewists know which stitch length is necessary for external stitches, interior structural stitches, liner stitch length, and sew on. In addition, they know the size of all webbing cuts and what bar tacks go where. All of that combined brings you our quality, USA-made bike bags.

Tall Matt is well known around these parts for his multitalented position here at RRB. Not only does he operate some pretty cool machinery at the shop, he also stretches his legs on his custom, steel, Davidson road bike.

Recently, the New York Times Wirecutter reviewed 22 Fanny Packs and our Lil Guy Mini Pack made their top selection.

Our new limited edition custom Klean Kanteen made out of the best materials! Artwork by the best human — the oh so talented Serena Rio.

's Jammer time! A unique high volume, rackless, universal handlebar/saddle bag. This bag is perfect for city commuting/road touring/dirt bike packing or casual beach rides - load it up with the essentials and have plenty of room for more gear.

2020 has been a trying year for all, but the least we can do is keep our heads high and focus on the things that matter most. Family, for me, always comes first, and work comes second. Like most, I've had a hard time focusing on work and the more delicate sides of my job. Through all of that, though, I have managed to finalize a few designs. One of those designs is a long time coming; an extended version of our ever-popular Mountain Bike Frame Bag will be available in two different sizes. Consider the current Mountain Bike Frame Bag a small, and we will be introducing a Medium and a Large version.
