This bag expands to the size of a typical plastic grocery bag (15" x 17" not including handles).
This small yet mighty piece in the touring arsenal is most useful for transporting goods from mercantile to camp and packing out refuse when onsite garbage disposal is not available.
Machine washable and rated for a 25 lb capacity, the bag itself weighs a mere 1.5 oz!
The ChicoBag compresses into its own stuff sack with carabiner and drawstring closure.
Let's all make the effort to maintain the reputation of cycletourists as the cleanest tourists on (and off) the road.
