Rambler

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Prêt-a-tourer
The quintessential randonneur bag

The Rambler makes long-distance cycling all the more enjoyable. The rando-style bag combines its timeless aesthetics with modern materials and the hardwearing dependability that they confer.
The ample storage that this product provides can be easily and quickly adjusted, so no flapping pieces of fabric are left ‘spare’ – for there is no greater source of irritation over a great many miles than that of an incessant sound created by some loose fitment.
From the bag’s very first mile you’ll appreciate the deep care that has gone into its design. And with clever features like the extra side pockets created to give easy access to the bare essentials, we expect you will go on appreciating well into its thousandth or ten thousandth.

Safe, sound and easily-accessed

This adventurous item from our Travelling Bags range has the benefit of keeping the most essential items in your luggage close at-hand and easy-to-access. Who among us has not had that sinking feeling while on a ride? The realisation that the thing you need is buried somewhere at the bottom of one of your bulkier bags. Be it a hand pump, a power pack or the OS Map for Pontefract. Do you stop and pour out the contents at the roadside, or muddle on with a tyre that is slightly deflated and only the vaguest sense of where you’re supposed to be going? Having those vital moment-to-moment items within easy reach will keep you wheeling calm and confident.

Hallmarked by experience

Patina is a concept inextricably linked with Brooks England. Our leather saddles engender admiration, precisely because of the way they change over time. They grow more comfortable the more you ride them, and the leather gathers signs of this usage – maturing into an object yet more beautiful than when it left the factory. In much the same way, our Travelling Bags become the pages on which the stories of your adventures are written. Against their rugged exterior, memories are made manifest: the nick from an errant strand of barbed wire; a stain the provenance of which you do not know, only that it occurred somewhere in France; the pervasive smell of firelighters that will forever imbue that one internal compartment. These are just some of tales your bags might tell.
Wax works

Wax works

Waxed cotton can endure a good deal. It is a material prized for its hardiness, its resilience and its steadfast defiance of foul weather. It has proven perennially popular with those companies making clothing for farmers, foresters and gamekeepers. It is well-suited to such jobs that require their proponents to be eternally outdoors, regardless of the season and the daily forecast. Because of this dogged indomitability, waxed cotton typically hangs around long enough to acquire some souvenirs. This is true of our Travelling Bags which are wrought from waxed cotton and will gather a tactile, visible legacy of marks, scars and mementos. The narrative history of your adventures, woven into your own personal tapestry.
A more civilised way to disappear

A more civilised way to disappear

How old is the touring cyclist’s dilemma? What to pack and what to leave behind; which items are truly essential and which are merely nice to have? Made to meander, to gather as you go, Brooks England’s line of Travelling Bags comprises everything you need to pack up for adventure. And enough room left over to collect some souvenirs along the way. With all this space to include the niceties of life on the move, as well as the absolute requirements, you can disappear for a few days (or weeks) without leaving your creature comforts behind.
