VAUDE Uphill 12 Bicycle Backpack with 12 Litre Volume with Breathable Carry System

Whether cycling or walking, the 380 g Uphill 12 bicycle backpack is always a reliable companion. Despite the minimalist features, bikers can rely on full comfort. In addition to the asymmetrically opening main compartment with 12 litre volume, a flat, stretchy mesh pocket and a zipped side pocket provide access to your phone or latch without having to remove the lightweight bicycle backpack. The front lacing has a triple function: stow a wind or rain jacket when the backpack is full, compression with less luggage and attachment option for hiking poles. 3D mesh on the back and shoulder straps ensure good ventilation when biking or hiking. Thoughtfully integrated into the design, reflective elements, a hydration system outlet and the rain cover in the pack bag complete the equipment of this universal backpack. All materials have a high recycled content. A certified mass balance process is used for the ultra-light, siliconised main material of the lightweight backpack. Pyrolysis oil is obtained from old tyres, which is supplied to conventional polyamide production. Chemical recycling saves up to 60% CO2. In addition, this product is climate-neutral: emissions from materials, manufacturing process and shipping have been holistically determined and systematically reduced. Currently unavoidable emissions have been fully compensated by the independent non-profit organisation "myclimate". The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for an environmentally friendly, functional product made from sustainable and bluesign certified materials.
