Revelate Designs Terrapin System 8L
$299.90
The Terrapin 8L is an updated, smaller version of the modular Terrapin System. Like the popular Terrapin System, the mount stays on the bike and the custom fitted drybag is removable for easy packing. With 8 liters of capacity, it is perfect for most lightweight bikepacking trips and fits bikes with low tyre clearance. It is perfectly sized for small framed bikes, including plus bikes with inherently diminished clearance.
A key feature of the Terrapin holster-like mount is the Indie-Rail attachment system. This a progression from conventional bikepacking bag mounts where the rail straps are fixed to the top center of the bag. Each rail is cinched down to the sides of the bag, virtually eliminating side to side bag sway without the need for external hardware. We combine this with a rigid internal structure and active camming buckles to prevent straps from slipping on rough terrain.
The mount is stiffened on all sides including an external plastic bottom sheet which protects the bottom of the bag like a fender. A composite internal top sheet provides a solid and stable platform for the strap points and transmits the vertical load to the seatpost connection.

Great product!. Loved the harness that stayed on the bike. Was easy to fit. Paired with the Valais dropper post protector, was an excellent bag for bike packing. I fitted my change of clothes, jandals, muesli bars and toiletries. Was quite small, being only 8 litres (Which was great for me) Fortunately, I had someone to help carry more food. I would have struggled to fit more in.
