With the Rapid Rolltop WP series, Tatonka presents three new rucksacks for city and commuting use. All three models are equipped with roll-top fasteners and taped seams and are therefore designed to offer reliable protection even in the rain and are particularly attractively priced with prices starting at 100 euros.

Tatonka presents the Rapid Rolltop WP waterproof daypack series, which is particularly aimed at commuters and cyclists who want to protect their electronic devices in all weathers. The series comprises three models with different volumes.

Waterproof construction

The Rapid Rolltop WP backpacks are made of coated nylon with fully taped seams that, according to the manufacturer, can withstand a water pressure of 10,000 millimetres. The roll-top fastener can be closed at the top or side and allows flexible adjustment of the pack volume. The rucksacks are PFC/PFAS-free impregnated and contain partially recycled materials such as X-Pac RX30.

Ergonomic carrying system

The models are equipped with the padded back carrying system for everyday use. Back and shoulder padding ensure carrying comfort, while a height-adjustable chest strap stabilises the luggage when cycling. An optional waist belt can be retrofitted.

Born in South Baden, Laurin Lehner is, by his own admission, a lousy racer. Maybe that's why he is fascinated by creative, playful biking. What counts for him is not how fast you get from A to B, but what happens in between. Lehner writes reports, interviews scene celebrities and tests products and bikes - preferably those with a lot of suspension travel.
