How can you carry your bags at the front?
The bike comes with mounting points on the frame (above the front wheel).
These mounting points can be used for an exclusive bag designed by the B'Twin teams:
our 25L front bag (ref: 8735484). It can be clipped on and taken off with 1 hand in 1 second.
As it sits on the frame, you won't notice its weight and the bike will remain stable.
