Carradice “animal friendly” bags - just ask if what you want is not on the web site

Post by peterh11 »

I saw the mention of the “animal friendly” Carradice bags in the latest issue of Cycle.

There are only a few of the bags featured on their web site made with recycled fire hose instead of leather straps and trim. However, there is a note in the description section for individual bags that any can be made without leather.

I contacted them in June to ask if I could buy a low saddle longflap saddle bag in this style. The response was rapid and positive. They made the bag specially and I had it in my hands less than a week after the first enquiry. Same price as the usual version.

I am really pleased with it. I used it on a long weekend trip recently and it was perfect for my needs. Also, it does work fine on the Sport Bagman support and saved me switching to an Expedition and moving my dynamo rear light.

Another positive experience of Carradice customer service!
