Review: The Tailfin Alloy Rack and Trunk Bag

Tailfin is best known for their integrated rigid seatpack range of products, most notably the AeroPacks. Designed for riders who prioritize weight and speed, the Tailfin Carbon AeroPack model is the neatest solution with zero lateral movement and stays fully planted even on the most arduous climbs and sprints. However, for those of us who aren’t racing and don’t require every amount of weight and aerodynamic savings, Tailfin also has an extremely versatile model that provides additional mounting options in the form of triple bosses along the arch – enter the Tailfin Alloy Rack.

Packing light for a cycling tour

As people with regular day jobs and limited vacation time, we naturally want to cover as much distance and see as many things as possible with our bikes when we travel. After having experienced a couple of cycling trips, especially those with plenty of elevation and long climbs such as the ones in Japan and Spain, we’ve come to the realization that the ability to pack light and ride unencumbered makes the trip much more enjoyable. Long live bikepacking bags!
