Silca seat roll premio review.

Since its inception silca has been elevating the humble floor pump to the realm of art. Seat roll premio is the world s first on bike storage solution powered by the boa closure system. There is just enough room for the bare essentials which in my case is a spare 700c tube two tire levers a small patch kit and a multi tool that has a built in chain tool. Tire levers premio were designed for safe use on carbon fiber rims if used properly and as intended.

It s not cheap for a saddle bag but adds style and a unique twist to make sure you make it home from your ride. Heavyweight canvas is first hot melt waxed for water proofing and then computer quilted with reflective thread for improved visibility. Though the body is waxed waterproof cotton shot through with reflective threading the roll premio s key feature is actually the inclusion of a boa dial instead of the usual hook and loop strap. The foundation of the premio seat roll is a waxed canvas of silca s own creation.

The silca premio seat roll as its name implies is a compartmentalized tool roll design that has three pockets for storage. The silca premio seat roll is attached to the saddle via a cord that loops around the saddle rail just like how a saddle bag with velcro strap does.

The boa system works very well but if you don t find the sweet spot where the seat roll snugs well into the seat rails you can expect that after tightening the boa the seat roll will settle a bit and wind up being a bit loose. Reinforced nylon rim shield safe for use on carbon rims. The seat roll premio does the same for the saddle bag. Seat roll premio is the world s first on bike storage solution powered by the boa closure system.

The msrp for the silca premio seat roll is 48 and the list weight is 109 grams. But that s where the similarities end. Attaching the roll to your seat rails does take some fiddling to get it securely fastened.
