Description
The compact option
Compact support.
Same familiar backpack.
Mini supports your backpack from below while you keep wearing it. Its shorter, 10-hole design and rectangular platform keep the setup compact, with less adjustment than Standard.
The right fit comes first: Mini needs no more than 6.5 inches from the seatpost to the rear of the saddle, as well as a compatible seatpost.

Let the bike carry the weight.
This demonstration shows the support principle: the platform meets the bag and the scale reading changes. Support depends on your bicycle, backpack, riding position, and adjustment.
Why choose Mini?
Compact by design.
Open a feature to understand the fit and the tradeoff.
Shorter, 10-hole design
Choose Mini when a compact support suits your bike and bag. It has less adjustment than Standard and more restrictive saddle-clearance requirements.
Rectangular platform included
Your backpack rests on the platform while you keep wearing it. The V Platform is available separately; check accessory compatibility with Support before ordering.
Ready when you step off
Your bag stays on you for the ride and the walk afterward. The Backbone stays with the bicycle, ready for your next trip.
Three measurements before you order
Make sure Mini
fits your bike.
- Seatpost diameter
- 22–32 mm · cylindrical
- Exposed seatpost
- At least 2 inches for the clamp
- Mini saddle clearance
- No more than 6.5 inches from the seatpost to the rear of the saddle
- Adjustment
- Shorter, 10-hole design; less range than Standard
Saddle position and the way your backpack meets the platform affect compatibility. Mini does not fit every bicycle setup.
