"For this second version of the 22L bag, Tailfin redesigned the frame to increase rigidity and load stability. Here, they sought to increase these numbers, especially when rough, rocky terrain was in play. The new frame is actually a hybrid design. It combines a rigid aluminum inner frame with a "rim" of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). This HDPE adds some flexibility to the bags, allowing them to absorb an impact."
"The older 22L panniers featured Tailfin's first-generation X-Clamp. The X-Clamp has been redesigned to provide more strength and bag security under continual impacts and vibrations. Again, better suited for off-road use compared to the previous version. The updated X-Clamp also sees more comfortable ergonomics."
"No more digging around in a dark, black bag, looking for something that is also dark colored. The new bags feature a white interior, making it a touch easier to find your items. Room for a 16" laptop. Tailfin realizes these won't only be used off-road. Now your 16" laptop easily fits for your commute to work or school."
Tailfin has discontinued its original 22L pannier option in favor of a completely redesigned version optimized for off-road bikepacking while maintaining everyday usability. The new bag features a hybrid internal frame combining rigid aluminum with flexible high-density polyethylene to increase load stability and impact absorption on rough terrain. Key improvements include a strengthened second-generation X-Clamp for better security under vibrations, improved external compression for compact packing, a white interior for easier item visibility, and a fully adjustable carrying strap. The bag accommodates a 16-inch laptop, making it suitable for commuting and weekend adventures alike.
