Like a seat pack, but better
Seat packs are great. The AeroPack is awesome. We take everything that you love about seat packs and pannier bags and combine them in to the ultimate way to carry your gear.
Secure and articulated
Smart engineered connections seamlessly integrate rack and bag, banishing unwanted movement and providing a secure attachment regardless of load. Integrated articulation allows the AeroPack to move in tune with your bike, even when used with full suspension mountain bike designs.
Take more (or not)
Choose an AeroPack with side pannier mounts to provide you with almost limitless load-carrying capacity. Or opt for the AeroPack without for increased aerodynamics and simplicity.
Real world durability
The AeroPack is designed with adventure in mind and is a proven and reliable bikepacking partner for many an ultra distance racer and traveller. Built tough using the highest quality materials, you can rely on the AeroPack to deliver as flawless performance after thousands of miles as it does when brand new.
Easy to use
The AeroPack promises to be the easiest and most enjoyable bikepacking luggage to live with, even with constant use. Rapid, tool-less attachment plus simple and full access to your kit make the AeroPack the obvious choice.
Access your gear on the go
The AeroPack’s cavernous 18 litre capacity can be accessed far easier than any other seatpack thanks to its large roll-top opening. It’s also far easier to pack and grab the gear you need compared to traditional rear entry bags.
Be safe, be seen
Rear visibility is important and the AeroPack has reflective panels and the ability to mount clip-on lights as standard. Optional adapters enable other lights to be fitted for increased safety.
Separate direct access, and stash pockets
One of the challenges with any roll top bag is the speed with which you can enter the main body of the bag. The direct access pocket allows you to get in to the main body of the bag without opening the roll top. A separate side pocket provides a home for frequently used items.
100% Waterproof
All Tailfin bags are made from high-performance laminate. High-frequency welded seams make them completely waterproof.
Triple Bosses
The AeroPack Alloy now features three stainless steel cage mounts on each side. Industry standard (M5) bolts are used with a spacing of 64mm between centres, so you can screw on any cargo or bottle cage for more carrying options.
