The lumbar area of the Koala is padded and breathable for extra comfort. Amphibious’ Raptor is a compact backpack with an oval cross-section and 15l capacity.

Described as being ideal for storage of rain gear or other items needing quick access, the adjust volume (4 to 5.5l) Sidebag attaches to handlebars or engine guards.
