<h3><strong>FOR THE WHOLE BIKE</strong></h3>
<p>Most bikepacking kits are stitched together from multiple brands that share nothing in common. EVOC’s new bikepacking collection is a modular system of waterproof, PFAS-free bags that all share the same straps and mounts, so they link together to your frame’s mounts or to a rack.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60877" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026.jpg" alt="evoc_2026" width="688" height="750" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026.jpg 688w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026-275x300.jpg 275w" sizes="(max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px" /></p>
<p>The set contains everything from an insulated food pouch to rear panniers. The collection was developed in partnership with Jana Kesenheimer, winner of the women’s Transcontinental Race, the self-supported ride across Europe.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60875" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_2.jpg" alt="Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_2" width="912" height="607" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_2.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_2-300x200.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<p>The collection is split into two segments: Ultra are the minimalist race-level models that Jana relies on for competition, while Explorer is the everyday range with more features and options for touring, bikepacking, and commuting.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60876" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_3.jpg" alt="Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_3" width="912" height="608" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_3.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/Evoc_Bikepacking_Jana_Tracka_3-300x200.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<p>Both lines share the same straps and mounts, so you can mix and match between sets to best suit your needs. Straps come in three lengths to fit almost any frame and feature soft TPU rubber under the buckles to prevent scratches.</p>
<p>The new collection focuses on minimalist color options, so you don’t have to worry about clashing. All bags are available in black, and some are available in sand. If purple is your thing, check out the Seat Bag and Seat Bag Ultra models for the Violet colorway.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60867" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_handlebar.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_handlebar" width="912" height="571" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_handlebar.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_handlebar-300x188.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<h3><strong>HANDLEBAR PACKS</strong></h3>
<p>Handlebar bags can be hard to mount and pack. EVOC’s new 5L uses a tool-free BOA dial and strap system that eliminates the need for a heavy aftermarket mount. The side-loading roll-top bag is perfect for packing bulky items that compress, like a sleeping bag, and can be easily removed if you need to head inside for the night. An exterior elastic cord holds a rain jacket or anything that requires quick, easy access.</p>
<p>Our favorite bag might be the Handlebar Pack WP 1.5. This is the bag that stays on the bike year-round. Big enough for a small jacket and the things you reach for on every ride, and fully waterproof, so your gear stays dry when the weather doesn’t cooperate. Run it alone or stack it with the larger bags if you need more room up front.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP:</strong> $150 (5l), $75 (1.5l)</li>
<li><strong>Weight:</strong> 330g (5l), 120g (1.5l)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions:</strong> 35×17×15 cm (5l), 24.5×10×10 cm (1.5l)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60866" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_frame.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_frame" width="912" height="543" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_frame.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_frame-300x179.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<h3><strong>TOP TUBE PACKS</strong></h3>
<p>The top tube pack comes in 1l and 2l. Both are easy to open one-handed, feature a pass-through charging port for handlebar-mounted electronics, and offer enough room for your phone. The interiors feature side mesh pockets for small essentials that you may need to access quickly. Both top tube bags can be lashed together with the frame packs via the shared strap system, or you can use common frame top tube mounts for strap-free installation.</p>
<p>Smaller frame sizes don’t leave much room inside the front triangle, so EVOC developed the 2L with Jana. The aerodynamic design minimizes drag, allowing her to carry additional gear while still accessing two water bottles.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP:</strong> $55 (1l), $80 (2l Ultra)</li>
<li><strong>Weight:</strong> 125g (1l), 140g (2l Ultra)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions:</strong> 5×23×10 cm (1l), 5×45×10 cm (2l Ultra)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60870" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_frame_main.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_frame_main" width="912" height="492" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_frame_main.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_frame_main-300x162.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>FRAME PACKS</strong></h3>
<p>Available in 1.5l and 3l, the frame packs give you the most room while still clearing two water bottles in the front triangle. They feature smooth one-handed zip access to a large main compartment, as well as slim exterior pockets for smaller items like cash or drink mixes. Inside, an adjustable divider and mesh pockets keep your gear neatly separated and easily accessible.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP:</strong> $95 (1.5l), $115 (3l)</li>
<li><strong>Weight:</strong> 125g (1.5l), 200g (3l)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions:</strong> 5×30×11 cm (1.5l), 5×47×12 cm (3l)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60868" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_mini_frame.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_mini_frame" width="912" height="462" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_mini_frame.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_mini_frame-300x152.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>MULTI PACKS</strong></h3>
<p>The multipack is our most versatile pack. Mount it almost anywhere: under the top tube of your full-suspension mountain bike, the seat tube of your hardtail, or underneath the down tube of a fully loaded gravel bike. It’s available in either 0.7l or 1.2l.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP:</strong> $55 (1l), $80 (2l Ultra)</li>
<li><strong>Weight:</strong> 125g (1l), 140g (2l Ultra)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions:</strong> 5×23×10 cm (1l), 5×45×10 cm (2l Ultra)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60869" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_saddle_bags.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_saddle_bags" width="866" height="750" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_saddle_bags.jpg 866w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_saddle_bags-300x260.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 866px) 100vw, 866px" /></p>
<h3><strong>SEAT PACKS</strong></h3>
<p>When fully loaded, seat bags frequently suffer from the dreaded bag wag. EVOC uses a small wedge that shoehorns around the seat post. This unique design is paired with straps that run underneath the saddle. This combination firmly affixes the bag at two points, which prevents side-to-side motion. The more you load it, the more the weight pushes down towards the wedge, locking the bag down even tighter.</p>
<p>EVOC offers two versions. Both seat packs are compatible with dropper posts. They feature an adjustable waterproof roll-top, reflective strips, a rear light strap, and elastic loops for gear that doesn’t fit inside.</p>
<p>The Ultra version is designed for racing. It uses buckles to shave weight and is available in both 4L and 7L capacities. If the Ultra is a rally car, the BOA line is for those who enjoy the small luxuries. It delivers similar performance at a small weight penalty, but the quick dials make it easier to load and unload.</p>
<p>EVOC has also added reinforced side panels to the seat packs, helping hold the bag’s shape and reducing the potential for bag wag. BOA straps also better stabilize loads as weights get heavier, allowing EVOC to offer them in larger sizes: 9L, 12L, and 15L.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP:</strong> $150 (Ultra 4l), $175 (Ultra 7l), $175 (BOA 9l), $200 (BOA 12l), $215 (BOA 15l)</li>
<li><strong>Weight:</strong> 290g (Ultra 4l), 360g (Ultra 7l), 530g (BOA 9l), 570g (BOA 12l), 600g (BOA 15l)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions:</strong> 17×30×15 cm (Ultra 4l), 17×42×15 cm (Ultra 7l), 19×45×15 cm (BOA 9l), 20×50×17 cm (BOA 12l), 21×56×17 cm (BOA 15l)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60871" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_seat_bags.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_seat_bags" width="912" height="469" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_seat_bags.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_seat_bags-300x154.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<h3><strong>SEAT BAGS</strong></h3>
<p>To match the durability of the bikepacking collection, EVOC developed the new Seat Bag Tour from the same waterproof fabric, with a water-repellent zipper and a Hypalon panel to protect the seat post from abrasion. It comes in M and L. For shorter days out, the Seat Bag Ultra keeps it simple. Clean, rail-mounted, and available in the ever-fashionable Violet.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP</strong>: $30 (Ultra), $35 (Tour M), $40 (Tour L)</li>
<li><strong>Weight</strong>:38g (Ultra), 97g (Tour M), 97g (Tour L)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions</strong>: 7×13×5 cm (Ultra), 9.5×15×8.5 cm (Tour M), 11.5×17×10 cm (Tour L)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60873" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_acessory.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_acessory" width="912" height="540" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_acessory.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_acessory-300x178.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<h3><strong>ACCESSORY POUCHES</strong></h3>
<p>EVOC’s new food pouch, known internally as the “burrito bag,” is stem-mounted and insulated. It’s the perfect size for keeping the aforementioned burrito warm on the way to camp or keeping that tall can cold. It also features an outside mesh pocket for stashing wrappers. Remember, leave no trace. EVOC also designed a down tube pack, which is a waterproof anything bag. It’s the perfect place to keep spare tubes, tools, and the like. This location often gets covered in crud, making it a poor spot for a zipper. Instead, a roll-top makes it easy to access your things while maximizing water (mud/dust/grit/ bug) proofness.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP</strong>: $50 (Food Pouch), $70 (Downtube Pack)</li>
<li><strong>Weight</strong>:90g (Food Pouch), 70g (Downtube Pack)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions</strong>: 9.5×17×9.5 cm (Food Pouch), 7×30×8 cm (Downtube Pack)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-60872" src="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_panniers.jpg" alt="evoc_2026_panniers" width="912" height="684" srcset="https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_panniers.jpg 912w, https://themtblab.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/thesis_186/custom/images/2026/06/evoc_2026_panniers-300x225.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px" /></p>
<h3><strong>FRONT AND REAR PANNIERS</strong></h3>
<p>When EVOC set out to build panniers, the team looked for the best mounting system available and even considered designing one in-house. They landed on KlickFix, fellow Germans, known as leading bicycle bracket developers, whose mechanical latches click on and off with ease. The collection includes a 4.5L fork pannier and a 25L rear pannier. The rear hides a padded laptop sleeve and mesh pockets, so you can race on Sunday and sell on Monday. It also gets reflective trim and removable shoulder straps.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MSRP</strong>: $100 (Fork Pannier 4.5l), $110 (Rear Pannier 25l)</li>
<li><strong>Weight</strong>: 260g (Fork Pannier 4.5l), 690g (Rear Pannier 25l)</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions</strong>: 15×12.5×30 cm (Fork Pannier 4.5l), 30×46×16 cm (Rear Pannier 25l)</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>Whether you’re the fastest woman across the continent or planning your first overnighter, the EVOC collection is built to work together however you mount it.</em></p>
<p><em>The EVOC bikepacking collection is available beginning June 11th through quality retailers. HLC is the exclusive North American distributor for EVOC.</em></p>

<h3><b>Tailwind Nutrition Partners with The Conservation Alliance for Trail, Land, and Open Space Access</b></h3>
<p><i>Philanthropic donations transcend Earth Week with a prolonged giveback program</i></p>
<p><a href="http://www.tailwindnutrition.com">Tailwind Nutrition</a>, the leading provider of simple and complete nutrition products, has partnered with <a href="https://conservationalliance.com/">The Conservation Alliance</a> to support the mission of protecting North America’s wild places. Tailwind Nutrition will donate ten percent of sales of its new <a href="https://snp.link/5bb7cd90">Mango Yuzu Endurance Fuel</a> to the Conservation Alliance.</p>
<p>Tailwind Nutrition has historically provided philanthropic donations to organizations that support access to the outdoors, including the American Hiking Society, Durango Devo, Durango Trails, and Silver Stallion Bicycle &amp; Coffee Works. As a member of The Conservation Alliance’s Business Advocacy Network, Tailwind Nutrition recently donated 5% of net sales during Earth Week, April 19-25, 2026, to the organization. With the launch of Mango Yuzu Endurance Fuel, Tailwind will extend its giveback program beyond Earth Week to further The Conservation Alliance&#8217;s goals.</p>

<p>“When we think about why Tailwind Nutrition exists, the answer always starts in the same place: the outdoors,” explains Jenny Vierling, co-founder of Tailwind Nutrition. “Every product Tailwind produces is intended for people who feel most alive outside, whether on a trail, a gravel road, or a mountain top. We are proud to support the work of The Conservation Alliance to protect wild places across North America and preserve access for all recreational users.”</p>
<p>The Conservation Alliance is busier than ever fighting against proposals to sell off public lands and new threats that face communities across the country. Partnering with brands like Tailwind Nutrition that share a value of preserving nature is critical for the Alliance’s movement.</p>
<p>“Partnerships like this with Tailwind Nutrition show how businesses can play a meaningful role in protecting the places we all depend on,” explains Paul Hendricks, Executive Director of The Conservation Alliance. “The Conservation Alliance brings companies together to support on-the-ground conservation and advocate for policies that protect our lands and waters. Since 1989, that work has helped protect more than 125 million acres and nearly 5,000 river miles. Collaborations like the Mango Yuzu release help turn everyday choices into real and lasting impact.”</p>

That&#8217;s the kind of alignment today&#8217;s outdoor consumer expects.&#8221;</p>
