Yesterday Tailfin introduced their new Journey Rack. The successor and evolution of their long-standing Alloy Rack. The familiar quick-release functionality refined. As usual you can mount it w/o need for special mounting points or bosses on your frame. Simply by using a special Thru Axle and a Seat Post Connector. On and off in seconds.

I could test it (alongside with a SpeedPack and their 16 L Panniers) since a few weeks already.

Couldn't see myself being compatible with long top tube bags before. But maybe I am?

Set to find out with this Tailfin Long Top Tube Bag 2.2L. So far I love it's design, construction and shape. Typical great Tailfin engineering.

Premiere mit Frau und #bikepacking - meinen #Tailfin rück ich aber nicht raus, darf sich jeder vorher mal mit der #arschrakete bemühen 😜🙃

Currently testing the new Tailfin AeroPack Cargo as well as the not that new but still pretty new Bar Bag System with 2 different bags: the Drop Bar Bag Small and the Flat Bar Bag Large.
[...]
The mounting hardware is the same and the main (pretty much only) difference is the closure system. The neat „Wavelock“ system for the Drop Bar Bags maximizing tidiness and compactness and a conventional roll top closure for the Flat Bar Bags. ...

I also have all the accessories mounts and everything already proved to be rock solid on my rides over the weekend. If you have any specific questions I’m happy to answer. I might post a few stories with details and findings over the next few days but a review article will have to wait until after the upcoming Hellenic Mountain Race. . . #Bikepacking #AeroPackCargo #BarBagSystem #Tailfin #cyclinglife #radfahren #cycling #Adventurebike"

Yay - Bae is back!
Poor Bae had to wait ages for her fork to come back out of service.
But now they are united again and I are united with Bae! 😍😉🤓

@tic merci. Il me manque encore la nouvelle sacoche de cintre ;-) Ceci dit #tailfin est peut-être un peu cher, mais coche tellement de bonnes cases pour moi que je ne changerais rien. Pour la météo ça va vers le mieux et on a quand même des équipements qui vont bien aussi.

Fazit nach einer Woche in den Alpen mit verschiedensten Wegoberflächen, Anstiegen, Abfahrten, Kurven und täglich wechselnden Unterkünften: Ich möchte definitiv nicht mehr zur #Arschrakete zurück, der #Tailfin-Gepäckträger trägt auch die beiden Ortlieb Frontroller perfekt und ohne Wackelei/Geräusche 🤷

Morgens und abends mit je einem Handgriff die Taschen ein-/ausklicken und fertig. Kein Gefummel, Gestopfe und ggf. erneutes Packen mehr - großartig! Wenn jetzt noch die großen Ortlieb-Taschen dran passen, wäre es perfekt. Dann passt auch der abendliche Einkauf mit rein und ich kann den Mini-Rucksack Zuhause lassen.
