View Full Version : Lockable luggage?

Hello,

Is there such a thing as a trunk or something with a hard shell that you can lock and secure to the bike? I would like to ride to a local trail to go running and be able to lock up my bike shoes. I also like the idea of locking the bike somewhere and not have to carry the emergency took kit and other things with me.

Thanks.

Chris,
There definitely is at least one brand of such things. Try doing some searches. I know that a couple of years ago I came across a site that, if I remember correctly, had hardshell rack trunk and panniers that either locked or had a setup for padlock. If I get time I will try some searches, too, and let you know.
Regards,
Raymond

If there is such a thing, I'd check to see that it can only be removed from the bike with a key, because otherwise somebody who wants the contents of your luggage container can steal the container and worry about opening it later.
