The Cyclite Musette / 02 is an ultra-lightweight shoulder bag weighing only 48 grams, designed for bikepacking and gravel adventures. A modern evolution of the classic musette used in road cycling, it offers 5.1 liters of volume to quickly carry supplies or groceries during brief stops, while folding into an ultra-compact format (10 × 6 × 2 cm) that slips into a jersey pocket or frame bag.

Technical Summary

The Musette / 02 embodies the Cyclite philosophy: rethinking every detail to optimize performance and functionality. Made from polyamide ripstop N20D with PU/silicone coating, it is water-resistant and easy to clean. Its featherweight of 48 g for 5.1 L of capacity makes it ideal equipment for ultra-distance competitions, self-supported bikepacking raids, and gravel rides where every gram and every second counts.

Technical Highlights

• Extreme ultra-lightness: Only 48 g for 5.1 L, thanks to N20D ripstop technical fabric with double coating (PU/SIL)
• Patented stabilization system: Unlike traditional musettes that slide and unbalance the cyclist, the Musette / 02 incorporates an additional strap attached diagonally to the shoulder strap to keep the bag centered and stable on the back, even when loaded with supplies
• Maximum compactness: Stores in its own integrated pocket (10 × 6 × 2 cm), ready to be deployed instantly during a resupply stop
• Morphological versatility: Adjustable shoulder straps for sizes from 1.50 m to 2.10 m in height
• Resistance and durability: Robust ripstop material, water-repellent treatment, careful construction to withstand the demands of bikepacking
• Eco-responsible approach: Plastic-free packaging, brand member of 1% for the Planet

Use and Race Strategy

The Musette / 02 is designed for bikepackers, ultra-cyclists, and gravel riders for whom resupply stop efficiency is critical. In self-supported racing, the ability to shop quickly at the supermarket and then leave without wasting time reorganizing bags can make the difference. This musette offers large volume with instant access, carries comfortably on the shoulder or back during shopping, and stores away in seconds once supplies are transferred to main bags.
