Why ride with Tailfin
I’ve been using a Tailfin system for years and I can’t imagine any other way. It is one with your bike, so you no longer realise that you have things with you. You can easily take a lot of stuff with you without being bothered by it. Getting out of your saddle and sprinting and your bike remains super manoeuvrable.
