Kriega’s Trail 9 Adventure backpack is a compact and convenient way to carry a nifty nine litres of gear with multiple compartments that allow you to store your stuff as you see fit.
The main storage compartment carries four litres and uses a robust roll-top design to keep your stuff clean and dry even in heavy downpours. A separate five-litre compartment can house a 2.0L, 3.0L or 3.75L hydration reservoir or anything else that needs quick access via a YKK heavy-duty and water-resistant zipper.
The distinctive honeycomb net exterior is a Hypalon net that cleverly holds even more gear under tension via an elastic cord so you can dry wet clothing such as gloves or air out your stinky socks.
The Trail 9 features a light version of Kriega’s proprietary Quadloc harness system as found on all its backpacks, which means it takes the weight off your back and shoulders and redistributes it to your chest and torso for all-day riding comfort, even with heavy loads. There’s also a removable waist strap for added stability.
The Trial 9 is priced at $269 and available in the choice of three striking colours (black, lime and orange), If you need more space, then check out the Trail 9’s identical-looking bigger brother, the Trail 18 ($349) which, at 18 litres, is twice the size.
As with all Kriega products, the Trail 9 Adventure backpack comes with an unmatched 10-year warranty.
