GIVI Evo Smart aluminium cases
Evo Smart is the latest offering from the Trekker Outback Evo line from GIVI, featuring the " skilful use of aluminium " available in three different finishes, and introducing a new and innovative lock. A new ' Anodised Aluminium ' finish is now available, in addition to the existing ' Natural Aluminium ' and ' Painted Black ' finishes. This treatment can increase the surface hardness of the aluminium, making it more resistant to wear and scratches, and gives it a high-quality appearance. The range includes two top cases of 58 and 42 litres, equipped with the Monokey fitting system, three side cases of 48, 44 and 37 litres, available in right and left-hand variants, and two right contoured side cases of 40 and 33 litres for right-hand mounting only. All side versions adopt the Monokey Cam-Side fitting system. All models in the range must necessarily be completed with the fitting of the Smart Security Lock kit, the versatile lock developed by GIVI( sold separately), available in 4 different ' packages ' for two to five cases. This new lock guarantees a fast and safe application / replacement of the lock mechanism and allows the key to detect three different positions. There is a range of options that can be purchased separately, including waterproof inner bags, an elasticated storage net and lining for the bottom and lid.
