Intuitive Safety on the Bike: Arkel Relies on the FIDLOCK SNAP buckle

Arkel brings over 35 years of experience in designing bicycle bags, focusing on durable materials, smart functionality and maximum comfort for touring and urban commuting. For this bag, Arkel relies on FIDLOCK SNAP buckles to ensure fast, intuitive and secure access. The magnetic-mechanical buckle automatically guides the two buckle parts together and lets them lock into place. Opening works with a simple one-handed sideways movement. On the main flap, Arkel uses two SNAP buckles 20, ideal for 20 mm webbing and equipped with a ladder lock for flexible length adjustment. Combined with waterproof materials and a robust internal structure, the result is reliable protection for your gear — even in rain and splashes.

Additional Stability While Riding: Third SNAP buckle for Maximum Security

To keep the bag stable at higher speeds and on rough terrain, Arkel adds a third FIDLOCK SNAP buckle 20. This buckle secures the third stabilisation point, holding the bag close to the body when worn crossbody so it won’t shift while riding—a clear benefit for bike commuters and sporty riders. Ergonomic, three-point adjustable straps, reflective details for enhanced visibility, and a padded laptop compartment are featured on the 16L and 24L models, completing the design. The result is a well-crafted Arkel bag named Wellington that, thanks to FIDLOCK fastening technology, delivers a comfortable, secure, and smooth user experience.
