SILCA Mattone Seat Pack Saddle Bag

Named after the Italian word for Brick, Mattone is a water-resistant, ultra-compact seat bag that attaches to the rails using the BOA® Closure System.  The unique zipper design allows it to be accessed while on the bike or to open like a book when removed from the bike for easy access.

Mattone is for the cyclist looking to carry a spare tube, CO2, Multi-Tool, and some cash in a discrete, water-resistant package.  Internal divider holds ID, credit card or cash while also protecting your tube from your multi-tool!

Seat bag users fall into two categories: Seat Roll aficionados and seat bag users.  Traditionally, seat bags have been simple open spaces that allowed content to jangle about, making noise and rubbing against each other.  Often times a spare tube was pulled out of a seat bag to reveal it was more full of holes than the tube being replaced due to friction against a house key or multi-tool.  

With Mattone, we designed a layout similar to a book, where the bag can fully open to hold the tube and CO2 cartridge on one side, separated by a padded ballistic nylon ‘page’ separating it from the other side where you can store an inflator head, multi-tool, contact lens case, etc. The ‘page’ also contains a slot for a credit card, ID, money, or house key.  The unique off-centre Aquaguard Zipper allows the case to completely open and lay flat when off the bike while also allowing easy access to the multi-tool and money/card slots when on the bike without the risk of spilling all the contents of the bag.

A high-friction Hypalon strap with BOA® Closure completes the package.  Making more than 15x the power of Velcro®, the BOA® Closure uses a ratcheting mechanism that will not creep or loosen even under the most extreme vibration and impact.  This ensures the Mattone will remain ‘high and tight’ under your saddle until you need to access it... no swinging, swaying, or rattling... ever.
