More space for breasts and a beer belly

When the French tailor bike backpacks, they don't just come up with interesting designs. The shoulder straps also have a tongue-in-cheek, funny title: "Free Boobs and Belly System". Ride briefly introduces the RAC 6.2, FRD 11.1 and FRD 20.1 backpacks from French packaging specialist V8.

The companion for enduro rides

The RAC 6.2 backpack has been specially developed by V8 for the enduro discipline and is sold including a hydration bag. Thanks to the harness system called monopoint FBS, which brings the shoulder straps together at the sternum, and the adjustable straps on the side, it offers excellent support without sitting on the hips. So good that you almost forget about it, says Denise Ruiz from Swiss V8 supplier Magic Downhill. Speaking of the harness system, the abbreviation FBS means: Free Boobs and Belly System.

The Rac 6.2 offers six liters of volume, weighs 410 grams and has an opening for the drinking tube on the left or right, an emergency whistle and is available in black/orange, black/teal and black/yellow. The price tag reads CHF 79

Would you like a little more space?
The FRD 11.1 backpack is the ideal companion for day trips. With its 11 liters, it is compact and offers a generous amount of space at the same time. The main compartment can be opened completely and contains various small compartments so that everything has its place. The FRD also has the monopoint FBS belt system, which makes room for the bust and (beer) belly. The color variants are the same as those of the RAC, the weight is 650 grams and the wallet is lightened by CHF 89.-.

Equipped for the big adventure

The FRD 20.1 is the big brother of the FRD 11.1. 20 liters of volume are on board, the color variants and the transport system are designed in the same way as the 11.1. 2 large outer compartments, both of which can be opened completely. Two large outer compartments, both of which can be opened completely, are very useful. One outer compartment contains many small compartments with space for tools, jackets, snacks and much more. The other outer compartment offers space for jackets and other items of clothing.

All of the above backpacks are equipped with so-called EVA pads, which provide more comfort and better ventilation. These can also be removed and the separately available back armor from V8 can be used instead. All backpacks naturally offer a mesh holder for mounting the bike helmet on the outside.
