Lightweight with a snug fit and back protector
This combination will Evoc with the brand new Trail Pro range. The smallest version of Evoc's latest offspring is said to weigh just 900 grams with a capacity of ten litres. With protector. The Trail Pro 16 weighs 100 grams more and the largest version, the 26-litre version, is said to weigh 1070 grams. The Trail Pro owes its low weight to its extremely light weight of just 168 grams. Back protector. The lightweight yet robust Codra material also keeps the weight down.
The new, pre-shaped Liteshield Plus back protector is the centrepiece of the Evoc Trail Pro. It consists of a two-component sandwich construction made of EPP foam and a TPU support layer. The side facing the back is constructed in plus-shaped elements. This is intended to promote ventilation and increase flexibility at the same time. The protector elements can be moved in relation to each other so that the rucksack fits the back even better.
Despite its low weight, the Protector backpack for bikers is TÜV-certified in its entirety and the protector is tested according to the strict Level 2 standard (EN 1621-2). This means that it absorbs 95% of the impact energy. If the protector is damaged in the event of a fall, Evoc's free crash replacement programme applies.
In addition to weight and protection, a MTB backpack should also offer plenty of storage space. The Trail Pro can hold ten litres in the smallest version, 16 litres in the next largest version and up to 26 litres in the largest version. All versions are divided into a large main compartment with a hydration bladder, a tool compartment, a fleece-lined glasses compartment and two hip belt pockets. However, there is not only space for energy bars, keys and smartphones in the generous hip pockets, but also a rain cover. For uphills on hot days, the Trail Pro has attachment loops for a helmet holder.
Snug fit and weight on the hips
The "boddy hugging" approach has proven itself in the Touring rucksack-segment from Evoc and is transferred to the Trail Pro. Wide fins hug the rider's hips to optimally distribute the weight over the body's centre of gravity. In the neck area, the width of the shoulder straps adapts to the shoulder width of the wearer. This is made possible by variable connecting elements called Brace-Link. This should ensure a better fit and therefore greater comfort. The Evoc Trail Pro is available in two sizes. Back length S/M is for a torso length of 41 to 48 centimetres and back length M/L for torso lengths of 48 to 53 centimetres.
