Euro Seat Bags

Designed specifically for Volae, M5 and HP Velotechnik hardshell seats, the Euro series of bags are made of durable Cordura nylon for a lifetime of use and abuse. Each has a reflective stripe for excellent visibility, two external mesh pockets for gear or bottles, a gear compression strap to keep things quiet, a seat compression strap for excellent hold no matter what seat pad you're using, velcro side stabilizers to keep heavy loads from shifting on the rounded seat, and an internal pocket and hose port for your favorite water bladder.

Euro Small At 350 cubic inches, the Euro Small provides just enough room for essentials like tools, spare tubes, lunch, a light jacket and a 50oz. water bladder. A separate outer pocket works great for a wallet and cell phone. Use the mesh side pockets for rain gear or extra bottles. Available in Black or Neon Yellow. Order: Euro Small Seat Bag

Euro Large The Euro Large holds 1,050 cubic inches of gear in a small, efficient space. Perfect for commuting or day trips where more gear is required, the Euro Large has the same features and construction as it's smaller brother, but with greater volume. Holds up to a 70oz. bladder in it's internal pocket, and is available with or without an opening in the top to accomodate a headrest. Available in Black or Neon Yellow. Order: Euro Large Seat Bag

Kickstand Gizmo

Tired of leaning your bike against the nearest tree? The Volae Kickstand Gizmo mounts to your rear wheel's dropout for sturdy support even with a loaded rack. Requires an inexpensive Greenfield kickstand and works great on any Volae model, and many other recumbents (See the Hostel Shoppe's Kickstand Fitlist for other applications). Kickstand Gizmo - #78457 Greenfield Kickstand - #10787

Mirrors

The B&M Cyclestar Mirror with the short bow goes way beyond "sort-of works". This lightweight, stable mirror fits on a Volae handlebar like it was made for it. Wonder how that happened? B&M Cyclestar Mirror (Short) - #75674

T-Bar Light Mount

The Volae T-bar Light Mount fits perfectly in the derailleur mast of any Volae. A standard diameter "T" means that attaching any handlebar-mounted headlight or cyclocomputer is about as easy as it gets. Fits many other recumbents as well (see Hostel Shoppe link below). T-Bar Light Mount - #55182

Rear Racks

Our cleverly designed seat stay adjustment clamps double as rear rack mounts, which make it easy to mount a rear rack on any Volae. Old Man Mountain has helped us create the perfect rack for the Volae that has an ingenious design to avoid conflict with the rear disk brake. It's a must for any of our disk brake-equiped bikes, and is a workhorse option for any other Volae model. Old Man Mountain Sherpa Rack #88246

Fenders

Our 20/26 Tour and Century happily accept many common 20/26 fender sets. We recommend the economical Planet Bike Freddy Fenders (#82814 and #82816). The Expedition and Expedition Pro require a "mid-weight" width fender. Hostel Shoppe's Expedition Fenders (#82816 & #30410) fit the bill nicely.

I have been riding recumbents for 4 years and was already sold on the concept when I ordered my new Team this past summer. I have had my Team for about 6 weeks and wow, what a ride. I love the smooth power transmission to the road. For a first iteration model you have certainly done your home work because it has exceeded my expectations. One suggestion would be for braze ons on the riser bar so you wouldn't have to use the friction bottle cage, but hey that's pretty minor. The integral bag on the seat is also a great design, looks sharp as well.
