Life Behind Bars

Life Behind Bars A Jakarta-based brand celebrating the cycling lifestyle.

Forever imprisoned behind the bars, forced to live a life of wind running through your hair, sweat dripping down your face, legs churning without an end in sight, slipping in and between cars, motorcycles, and busses, getting off the saddle to push, push, push up those hills, the rain stinging your eyes, the road unforgiving, the horizon beckoning but never nearer...

A life sentence of pure, unabashed, joy.

Another hidden Breakaway RX feature that might go unnoticed is its hidden pocket. It’s designed to be reachable whether you need to grab your stuff without opening the flap or prefer to access them with it open. Speaking of flexibility, it’s also accessible from either the right or left zipper, whatever works best for you.

The Nacho stands out with its playful fluorescent lime touch, but there’s more than just the charm.

It keeps your A-to-Z EDC secure, with 210D nylon ripstop holding everything down in any weather, and ready to hang right where your hands reach.

[Part 3/3] Material and Fabrication upgrades

With the upgrade features covered, let’s move into what builds the Breakaway RX, the fabrications:

1. Premium fabrics including X-Pac® X21 (Black and Slate) and X50 (Multicam), this means a more durable build while being approximately 17% lighter.

2. Aircraft-grade aluminium hooks replace the plastic ones on the compression straps. The straps are now detachable, allowing them to be reattached to different mounting points.

3. Six additional mounting points for external carry: two at the bottom back, two on the lower sides, and two near the top of the back panel. Pair them with the compression and hook strap (sold separately) for highly versatile external carry options.

4. The four internal pockets are upgraded to elastic mesh, maintaining visibility while improving capacity and providing a more secure fit to keep items stable on the move.

5. Top front strap replaced with laser-cut Hypalon, adding three loops for accessory attachment.

6. Hot-stamped detailing throughout for a more premium look and feel.

The Breakaway has been our most popular daypack for well over a decade. The RX treatment puts it on steroids.

[Part 2/3] Feature upgrades

There’s more to uncover on The Breakaway RX over its regular counterpart, including:

6. Magnetic sternum strap replaces the plastic version for quicker, more effortless operation.

7. A 4D-mesh back panel with more pronounced contouring for improved comfort and breathability.

8. Thicker and slightly wider shoulder straps

9. A stretch mechanism added to the laptop compartment, making its snug fit across different laptop thickness, and stays flat when it’s empty, so it won’t take unnecessary space.

10. Added bottom grab handle, for more handling options.

The upgrades don’t end here, there’s more of what the RX brings to the Breakaway. Stay tuned for the breakdown on material and fabrication upgrades next, or head to lbbjkt.com/breakawayRX (link in bio) for the full list.

2. Expandable side pockets, to accommodate bottles / tubes with larger diameter

3. Storm flaps added on top of the coated zippers to further enhance water repellency

4. Taller zipper for the main compartment opening, making access more convenient.

5. An additional inner pocket on the inside of the flap, accessible from both the left and right sides even when the flap is closed.

Introducing The Breakaway RX.

Everything you love about the Breakaway, elevated to its highest potential.

RX represents the absolute pinnacle of that model. When a product receives the RX treatment, compromises are off the table. This is where we bring out all the bells and whistles: premium fabrics, upgraded components throughout, and the best hardware available (some even custom-developed).

But it’s not just about better materials. Certain mechanisms and construction details were also overhauled entirely to deliver a noticeably better experience in real-world use.

The RX variant is for those who want the highest expression of a product.

Not every product earns the RX treatment.

The Breakaway RX is available now. This video is only a preview of the upgrades. See the full walkthrough and complete details on everything new and improved via the link in our bio

Linking up with , makers of bright Vespa accessories, we’re adding a new member to the family. Meet the TOADPACK: a bold, playful take on the tote that can dial the fun up or down depending on how you style it.

The TOADPACK doesn’t have just one personality. It’s designed to be flexible in how it presents itself. Keep the fluorescent lime accents for a louder statement, or tone it down for a mostly neutral, low‑profile appearance. The TOAD keychain and optional ‘Nachos Charm’ mini pouch are detachable, so you can be playful when you want to be, or professional when the moment calls for it.

Beyond the fresh coat of paint, the TOADPACK also introduces several genuine quality‑of‑life improvements:

• Hidden magnets in the grab handle help the handles automatically align so they don’t slip off when carried over your shoulder.
• A slip‑through system replaces the previous hooking system when transitioning to and from backpack mode, ensuring better alignment.
• A 4D mesh back panel and shoulder pads improve comfort and airflow in backpack mode.
• A built‑in luggage pass‑through and an extra D‑ring for attaching charms, especially useful when the utility loops are already occupied by .

That’s far from an exhaustive list of what’s new. It’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what the TOADPACK brings to the table. Dive into the full details on the product page (link in bio).

X50 is built for a casual, lifestyle tote feel with a subtle hint of toughness. It’s not only the Multicam Black pattern doing the work; Its 500‑denier CORDURA® outer layer delivers a more rugged hand feel. Compared to the 210D nylon used in the X21, the material feels denser and more structured. This higher density improves abrasion resistance and helps the X50 hold its structure over time.
