VAUDE TRAILFRONT COMPACT Handlebar Bag

For adventurous gravel and mountain bikers, the TRAILFRONT COMPACT handlebar bag by VAUDE offers the storage space they need with quick access to light touring luggage. The handlebar bag is part of VAUDE’s bikepacking range including versatile bikepacking bags designed for trail adventurers.

The bag is easy to mount on handlebars and headtube. The dry bag is accessible on both sides through roll closure openings with compression function. Additional compression straps on the bag mounting system give the dry bag enough stability during rough rides.

Highlights & Technologies:

GREEN SHAPE:
VAUDE's quality seal for products that are produced in a particularly environmentally-friendly way. As there is no worldwide standard for the assessment of organic products, VAUDE has developed their own rating system for environmentally friendly outdoor products with strict criteria. GREEN SHAPE labelled products are made from sustainable materials and with resource saving production methods. The criteria are not only strict but also continuously reviewed and involve the entire product lifecycle, ranging from development through to product care and recycling after use. The aim of this rating system is to minimize the environmental impact.

GRÜNER KNOPF (“GREEN BUTTON”):
The German textile seal GRÜNER KNOPF (“Green Button”) identifies textiles that meet high social and environmental standards. 26 social and ecological criteria are considered for each product. The companies must prove their human rights, social and ecological responsibilities.

Polyamide recycling:
For this product, VAUDE uses some robust, lightweight and fast-drying polyamide yarn. These are surplus materials and cutting room scraps from polyester production that – instead of being disposed of as waste (as is often the case) – are collected, processed and returned into the production cycle. This maximizes the utilisation of valuable resources in material production and minimises the amount of new raw materials used for a product.

PVC FREE:
This VAUDE seal means that this product is made entirely without PVC (polyvinylchloride). Looks like tarpaulin and is just as durable and waterproof, yet consists of polyurethane coated textile fabric instead of PVC. PVC often contains plasticizers (phthalates) that are suspected of having negative health impacts.

Note:
The reflective design elements attached to the clothing as decoration do not represent a personal protective equipment as mentioned in EU regulation 2016/425. Thus, they are also not covered by the provisions of the regulation.
