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

Whether you're cycling or walking, the 380g Uphill 12 bike backpack is always a reliable companion. Despite the minimalist features, bikers can rely on full comfort. In addition to the asymmetrical 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 bike backpack. The front lacing features a triple function: storing a wind or rain jacket when fully packed; compression with less luggage and attachment option for hiking poles. 3D mesh on the back and on the shoulder straps ensures good ventilation when cycling or hiking. Thoughtfully integrated reflective elements into the design, a hydration system outlet and the rain cover in the pack bag complete the features of this universal backpack. All materials have a high recycled content. A certified mass balancing 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: the emissions from materials, manufacturing process and shipping have been holistically determined and systematically reduced. Currently unavoidable emissions have been fully compensated via 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.
