Giant Loop Mojavi Saddlebag Zip
There are days on the trail when you just want to ride light, no backpack digging into your shoulders, but still carry the essentials. That’s exactly where this kind of luggage makes a difference.
With Giant Loop now under the wing of USWE, we’re seeing subtle updates: refreshed branding, updated materials, and the same proven design that’s been a go-to for off-road riders.
The Essentials
The Mojavi Saddlebag Zip is built for aggressive off-road use. It’s compact, low-profile, and sits tight against the bike, offering 12 liters (732 cubic inches) of total capacity split into two side pockets.
Construction is as tough as expected, with highly abrasion-resistant materials, military-spec hardware, and aluminum components throughout. It’s designed to handle mud, dust, water, and whatever the trail throws at it.
Mounting is straightforward and adaptable, working across different bike setups without much hassle. A key detail is the included heat shield, which protects the bag from exhaust damage, a small feature that makes a big difference in real-world riding.
What sets this version apart is the zippered top access, replacing the traditional closure and changing how you interact with the bag.
On the Trail
We spent some time riding with the Zip version of the Mojavi, and the difference is noticeable right away. The full-length zipper allows the bag to open wide, making it much easier to access loose items without unpacking everything.
In real use, it becomes perfect for carrying a rain jacket, an extra layer, or anything you may need quickly when conditions shift. Everything stays organized and within easy reach, which is exactly what you want when you’re focused on the ride.
The build quality remains solid and reliable, just like previous versions. The updated materials and textures are noticeable, along with the redesigned logo that reflects the brand’s new direction.
Installation is quick and intuitive. The mounting system adapts well to different motorcycles, which is always a plus if you switch bikes or prefer a setup that doesn’t require dedicated racks.
Final Thoughts
A well-executed solution for riders who want to carry the essentials without adding bulk. The Zip version brings a clear improvement in accessibility, making it a great fit for short trips, aggressive rides, or simply getting the weight off your back and onto the bike.
