EVOC 2023 Bikepacking Range

Completely waterproof with new sizes, offering even more options for multi-day tours

Whether it’s a micro-adventure from your doorstep or a multi-day expedition in far away countries – there is hardly anything more fun than exploring the world on a bike. At least that’s what the EVOC team thinks. And with the new, wholly revised BIKE PACKING range that will be launched in autumn 2022, things will get even better: the new generation of BIKE PACKING bags is now completely waterproof, and with a wide variety of sizes, it offers ample space even on arduous multi-day rides.

The first EVOC BIKE PACKING range in 2020 was defined by the search for the perfect trail and, therefore, the desire to make BIKE PACKING accessible for any kind of bike, but specifically mountain bikes. The focus was on uncompromisingly firm fixtures and minimal volume so as not to impede the fun (and safety) while riding even the most challenging terrain. What did the global market leaders for protector backpacks not realize at the time? The extent to which they themselves would fall for BIKE PACKING and specifically gravel biking. The EVOC team members’ and ambassadors’ tours became increasingly long and varied. Frequently, this led to us noticing all the little different details where the BIKE PACKING bags could further be improved. In the meantime, gravel biking has reached the mainstream – so the timing for our new range couldn’t possibly be any better!

We got a sneak peek of the new lineup at the Sea Otter 2022 show!

What makes the new BIKE PACKING range special?

From Spring/Summer 2023, the new range will not only offer a wide array of volumes (SEAT PACKs up to 16 liters), but handling and ergonomics have also received a substantial upgrade. For example, the renowned mounting system with the BOA Fit dial, which was developed in collaboration with EVOC, has been further optimized. It offers excellent stability and is very easy to use. Hidden ventilation orifices now enable the bags with roll-up fastening to compress the contents, and improved cable channels on the HANDLEBAR packs make mounting them even easier to different types of handlebars. In addition, the entire range is waterproof and has been fitted with welded seams and waterproof zippers. The Velcro straps have been replaced with the highest quality cut-to-size Hypalon Velcro straps. All bags are also equipped with reflective logo prints that enhance the riders’ visibility in the dark.

The entire product line will be available in various sizes in steel and carbon gray colors from autumn 2022.

Here is an overview of all the BIKE PACKING innovations:
