Madison has announced that it will become the exclusive distributor of Miss Grape bikepacking bags and accessories in the UK and Ireland.
Founded in 2012, Miss Grape was born from founder Michele Boschetti’s personal quest for better, more dependable bikepacking solutions than those available at the time. Since then, the brand says it has established itself as one of the early pioneers in expedition-ready bikepacking gear, trusted by adventurers around the world.
I am pleased to begin this collaboration with Madison. Since our foundation, we have been interested in the UK and Irish markets because of the strong bikepacking culture and community present in these countries. We are delighted to have found the ideal partner to bring the brand to market and to give this community the opportunity to connect with our products and access our solutions to travel further – and better – by bike – Michele Boschetti of Miss Grape
Since then, the Miss Grape range has continued to evolve and now offers a comprehensive selection of saddle, top-tube, frame, and handlebar-mounted luggage. Each product is packed with thoughtful innovation, including Miss Grape’s proprietary integrated waterproofing system, which combines the fully waterproof performance of a seam-welded inner bag with the durability and easy repairability of a heavy-duty stitched outer shell.
The lineup also includes the award-winning Il COSO (“The Thing!”) – a modular handlebar mounting system so impressive that it earned Bikepacking.com’s 2023 Product of the Year. All Miss Grape bags are meticulously manufactured in-house in Veneto, Italy, to the highest standards and are backed by a lifetime warranty for the original owner.
By adding Miss Grape to our brand portfolio, Madison brings retailers a premium bikepacking luggage range known for reliability, innovation, and rider-tested performance – designed to drive sales in the fast-growing adventure cycling category – Adrian Phillips, Brand Director at Madison
The full range of products will also be on display for the first time at iceBike* Manchester and London, with exclusive stocking in deals for retailers. Dealers are encouraged to register for iceBike* now at www.icebike.co.uk.
