The Wildcat Gear Fat Lion comprises of a large padded harness to retain your large dry bag under the bars. Our unique and secure retention system developed and proven under the Mountain Lion is supplemented with two additional straps to provide maximum stability for a larger load, and continues to resist working loose over rough terrain.

The Fat Lion delivers a solid storage solution with minimal interference to your riding for dry bags between 13 and 35 litres in size. This makes it a solid helps to maintaining predictable handling, and compliments our frame bag and seat system storage solutions.

The Lion will work with Jones loop bars (and other loops bars), flat bars and riser bars. The Fat Lion is likely too wide to fit with your drop bars.

Pictures show the Fat Lion with various drybags including a Wildcat Double Ended Drybag. The Fat Lion does NOT come with a drybag and although the Double Ended Drybag is an ideal companion, any drybag approx 13-35 litres in size should work.
