Seat Back Bag

Advanced Transportation Products has designed a custom bag to sit on your seat back. It has approx. 800 cubic inches of storage capacity in two sections: a main storage compartment with flap, and a zip- pered pouch on the main flap for wallet, keys, etc. The main section features two pockets, handy for tools, Powerbars, etc. The bag slips over the back of your VI- SION seat, and straps around the seat crossbar. Off the bike it features a com- fortable shoulder strap. The bag is ideal

as a day bag, or a touring companion bag for carrying valuable items.

Rear Rack / Panniers

Your VISION is equipped from the fac- tory with mounting positions for a rear rack, available from your VISION dealer. This allows you to use any standard pan- nier set for touring/commuting.

Fenders

For wet weather riding your Metro will accept fenders. Any 20” fender set that has a sliding brake clip will work - just slide the clip around the rear fender until it matches with the 5mm braze-on at the rear of your Metro frame. For the front you can either cut down the 20” front

fender to fit under the front fork, or you can simply leave the front fender off - the 1.75"” main backbone tube on your Metro makes a wonderful fender by itself!

Kickstand

I hate always looking for a tree or wall to lean my Metro against. We've built in an attachment point for a standard Greenfield kickstand. You should be able to get one of these at your local bike shop. They are also available from us, if your shop isn't close.
