Abstract
A zip fastener is provided for opening and closing and opening in an article such as a cargo pack for mounting on a bicycle. The zip fastener comprises zip tracks and a slider which is movable between opened and closed positions. In the closed position, the slider is accommodated within a hood. A gutter component is secured to the inside face of the pack and defines a gutter which can receive water, such as rainwater, leaking past the zip tracks in the region of the closed position of the slider. A drain hole is provided which allows liquid accumulating in the gutter to pass to the exterior of the pack. This measure prevents rainwater and the like from reaching the contents of the pack.
