The New DrySpec Line From Twisted Throttle

[TierHawg]

Very nice set-up.

 

[twistedthrottle]

just a simple question for clarification, but I guess twisted throttle didn't see the question

Sorry I missed that. The designer is out west snow boarding this week and I couldn't get a very good answer via text from him. The material is an 18oz. Vinyl. I cannot confirm if this is Polyvinyl chloride until next week. I will keep you posted.

Kev, are there patches for these bags? I did not think of it until I saw patches available for other dry bags. Guessin' I would have thought of the patches if I lived in the North Wet Country.

Are there discounts on these bags being offered at the IMS shows?

Looks like the D28s are on backorder till March 20th ???

Yeah sorry guys.... These bags were even better received than we expected and we planned for a good roll out. More to come in March. You can place your orders now and be the first to get them when they arrive.

You can try A Vicious Cycle in Ontario. I got two from them a while back. Don't know how many they have.

So whatchu waiting for Willis? Strap'em on your sled and take off. Just be sure to "whatch out where the huskies go" and "don't you eat that yellow snow" You might even want to pass by St Del Fonso's Pancake Breakfast and steal some margerine. Just don't take the Fur Trapper's margerine or you might get hit with a 'lead filled snow shoe'

So, Just wondering if anyone has used their new Dryspec system and feel the need to provide your professional opinion on them I'm in the market for a dry bag and this looks like it'll fit the bill. k-ching.

Kev, (from Twisted Throttle) Are they available now?

PS - Are they available in yellow? (hi-viz)

 

[MurphCO]

I've had them for about a month, haven't been poured on yet though


the fit and finish is great, more than enough room for any trip I will take. I don't prefer Panniers

 

[Koinz]

I have to say that with the smaller bag, I'm not crazy about filling it up from the ends. Just seems like it's harder to get to things. I do like the bigger bags top roll seal and the fact that it keeps its shape.

 

[MurphCO]

and if you stuff it enough you can use it as a nice backrest for those long trips

Please make the d28 in yellow. I would order 2 of them today.

I'll pass that along to the designer and buyers. This is the ype of feedback we need. We can't bring stuff to market if we don't know it's wanted.

I called twisted throttle this morning and expressed my desire for yellow bags. i've got a pillion and black vinyl bags will roast her. The d28 is exactly what I need, just not black! Grey, yellow, hi viz, something that won't be 200 degrees in the sun.

Actually the reason we designed this bag was to make it easier to get to things. All drybags of a similar shape have one entrance. If you pack a shirt at the bottom of the bag and need to get to it you have to unpack the whole bag. With two entry points it is much easier to access everything at either end of the bag while it is on the bike. The straps go over the center of the bag and entry is from the ends which are not blocked by strapping.

LOL!!! maybe make a red as well as a yellow for the Black bikes w/red springs as well as the blue bikes w/yellow springs... or a Blue while you're at it.. I'm IN!!! LOL
