Kriega's R20 Backpack for ADV and Dual Sport Riding
Kriega offers a complete line of backpacks that are of insanely good quality. I narrowed down what I wanted to run based off experience with my previous pack. Single track riding proves that hauling everything you need can be tricky as it’s important to keep things on the light and agile side. I found that my current pack just wasn’t offering the right amount of room and lacked a few features. At least in the PNW, a majority of the rides warrants a “just in case” jacket. My Ogio while great for sprint enduros and off-road races, was a tad small for everything I wanted to carry.
The R20 is perfect in terms of capacity. I comfortably fit everything I need in there including the following.
Hydration bladder 2-3 liters full
Medical kit
Life Straw
Spare gloves
Foodpack
21” tube (for anyone)
Goggles
Tools that don’t fit in my tool pack (around waist)
The R20’s straps are the best feature. They turn away from your arms and form to your shoulders like a glove. This keeps the bag from moving around, which is important in off-road conditions. I love the buckle and materials used, it seems bulletproof.
From Kriega:
The versatile ‘active’ pack for road and trail.
Incorporating Kriega’s Quadloc-lite™ system, the harness is angled away from under the arms giving total freedom of movement. Once set, the pack is exceptionally convenient to use with none of the re-adjustment necessary on conventional harness systems.
The size adjustable harness allows the pack position to be moved up or down to produce the best possible fit.
An optional waist strap is included for the extra demands of riding off-road.
FEATURES
The R20 incorporates a side pocket with water-resistant YKK® zip, along with an inner sleeve pocket and a key clip in the large main compartment. The pack is compatible with a CE-Level 2 back protector and hydration reservoir.
Designed and built with the highest quality materials, only Kriega offers an ergonomically perfect luggage solution that’s simple to use even in the thickest gloves, yet fully customizable to suit the most demanding of motorcyclists.
