如果您要骑摩托车,那么好的背包非常有帮助。如果您正在骑摩托车巡回演出,那么好的尾巴袋将非常有帮助。因此,当我看到纳尔逊·里格(Nelson Rigg)的新30升飓风包时,我想到了这两个角色,”让我们看看如何想法奏效了。”我给公司寄了一张便条,他们免费为我运送了一个测试单元,现在我们在加拿大骑行季节结束时就在这里。一年中的大部分时间我都用这个袋子。这就是它的解决方法。

Construction

The Hurricane is part of Nelson Rigg’s revamped lineup, made of UV-treated 24-ounce PVC tarpaulin-style fabric. Unlike the older textiles that Nelson Rigg and most other companies used, this fabric is completely waterproof, which is obviously a helpful feature in moto equipment.

The main compartment features roll-top closure, with a buckle on each side of the opening as well as one in the middle. These are large, tough buckles; I suppose they could break if you abused them, but they look and feel ready to hold up to years of regular use.

On one side of the pack, there’s a bottle holster that’s perfectly-sized for an MSR fuel bottle, including some retention straps to keep said bottle in place. Both sides of the bag have carry handles built-in, along with a few MOLLE-style loops. The front of the pack (or is it the back?) has two backpack straps with a sternum strap; the back of the pack (or is it the front?) has a flap that the rolltop buckles into. This flap has built-in MOLLE-style loops, and internal pockets.

袋子里有一个内置的空气清除阀,内部有一个袖子,可以将笔记本电脑的尺寸高达15英寸。

To use the Hurricane as a tail bag, Nelson Rigg includes four pieces of its Rigg Strap webbing. Using the loops at the end of the webbing, you can attach the Rigg Straps to your bike; then, you can attach the hooked cambuckles at the end of the Rigg Straps to the bag’s MOLLE loops.

它是如何工作的?

Every once in a while, I test a piece of moto gear that shines as an obviously well-thought out, well-built piece of kit. The Hurricane bag is one of those pieces of gear. However, I think it is best used as a tailbag, with the backpack capability less useful.

I thought the Hurricane was a good tailbag for three reasons: It’s waterproof, it’s much quicker to attach than a lot of other soft luggage, and it’s reasonably quick to access for items as needed on the road.

The secret to the quick attachment is the Rigg Strap system. It doesn’t take long to install them around slots or holes cut into a rack; I suppose many motorcycles would offer other hard points for tying down as well. Once they’re secured to your bike, strapping down the bag is as easy as placing it on your rack, sliding the hooked cambuckles into the MOLLE loops, tightening all four straps with a good tug, and tucking the ends away. You’re done the task in about the same time as it takes to read this paragraph.

尽管一些软行李系统提供类似的快速附件,但大多数没有。有了大多数行李袋或尾巴袋,您必须小心地路由蹦极绳,或者否则大惊小怪和带着皮带的烦躁不安,以使一切正确。有了飓风,它是设定的。而且,由于我在KTM 690 Enduro R上放了这个尾巴,座椅后面的燃油盖盖,所以我总是在放松和拧紧尾巴。与以前具有类似布局的自行车旅行不同,每次都很轻松,两者之间没有松动。

我要说的是,在袋子中间添加一条宝马凸轮带,使事情变得更加紧密,但是我在上一次巡回演出中留下了这个家,我没有错过它。

So, the bag is quick to attach, almost as quick as hard luggage. But the other advantage hard luggage has over soft luggage is that it’s often quicker to access your gear with a plastic or metal topbox; most soft bags are annoying to root around in.

The Hurricane needed abitmore faffing about than a topbox from Givi, etc., but again–it was pretty quick to access the internals and be on your way. Soft luggage usually takes extra attention after you’ve been rummaging about inside. Shifting the bag’s contents usually means you have to tighten straps and possibly adjust the load a bit. Not so with the Hurricane design; simply unsnap the buckles, pull out whatever you need from the bag, and snap the rolltop buckles closed again. All the bag needs is a quick tug on all four Rigg Straps, and you’re back on the road.

我用这个袋子将数千公里放到加拿大大西洋的每个角落,发现它是我使用过的最方便的尾巴。我要说的是,如果我要做更艰苦的越野骑行,我会想要一个不同的安排,这会减轻重量并使座椅上的移动更多。但是,出于我今年夏天的目的,这是一个完美的摇滚碎石路和颠簸的无线电塔步道。

I will also say that the backpack function was a nice feature, but I don’t think I’d use it as a backpack unless I needed to. Most larger rolltop bags do not work well as backpacks due to their shape, and while the Hurricane comes with comfortable straps (including a sternum strap), it isn’t as tight to your body as most riders would want—although I know some riders are perfectly happy with a loose fit, leaving their backpack to sit on the seat behind them. If that’s you, then this bag will work fine for you.

我确实认为,如果我在灯光旅行,并且在一个不愿将行李放在自行车上的地方旅行,那么欢迎背包功能。将飓风从其尾巴姿势中取出并以背包的身份佩戴,这将是一项非常快的工作,因此当您不寻找时,没有人可以将其从自行车上偷走。总而言之:背包皮带不是我个人使用的功能,但我确实认为其他对手会使用。

结论

飓风2.0袋将容纳大约足够的露营装备进行周末旅行;它可以在自行车上种植,并且非常防水。它带有$ 169.95 US的MSRP和终身保修。If you’re truly skint, then by all means, keep on using a canoe dry bag—but if you’ve got the money to invest in some functional and practical gear, I can say this is something I would spend my own cash on. More details在尼尔森·里格的网站上
