CHAPTER I.

We are a leather craft company, and our expertise is in designing and making hard-wearing bags for professionals. We are the only company to dedicate such expertise to the crafting of motorcycle luggage.

CHAPTER II.

We use materials with a level of quality you don't come across often, let alone in the motorcycle accessories world.

We only use European 100% vegetable-tanned, full-grain leather. And our thick waxed-cotton canvas is prepared either in France or the United Kingdom. This makes the Longride bags unique with no direct competition.

CHAPTER III.

We make our own designs, and mounting systems. Longride provides new and unique solutions for motorcycles, particularly the classic, cafe racer, and vintage ones we love.

THE END.

Unless stated otherwise, the Longride soft saddlebags are sold individually. Offers are available from the product pages to order a set of 2 saddlebags at a discount.
The classic panniers are always sold in pair.

Please note that the saddlebag holders (otherwise known as spacer) are always sold in pairs, so you only need to buy one set.

+ Making a bag from scratch: We don't do individual orders. However, we might take your idea and turn it into an actual Longride bag. So if something's missing from our catalogue that you wish existed, just let us know.

+ Customising a bag: We try not to as it is time-consuming, but we love our customers so much that sometimes, we find it hard to say no. Depending on our current work situation, we might say yes for little customisations if the order makes sense. Just don't be offended if we decline, which is what will most likely happen.

Longride started in 2010 under the brand K-DRIVE. Back then we were focused on the rigid black panniers made from leather and IPAREX (synthetic leather). Almost all of the designs from the K-DRIVE era are still available to order from us. Our bags are now branded under Longride, but they are of the exact same quality you've learn to appreciate through K-DRIVE.

Yes. We even have a photo.
