FR End Blackline 16 Backpack

• A constant, free flow of air is enabled by means of the vertical air channel. This ensures optimal ventilation even at high exertion levels including a lot of sweat so as to prevent the chilling of the sensitive kidney area.
• The EVOC LITESHIELD BACK PROTECTOR combines maximum protection against falls and a feather- light, highly effective construction with a great deal of flexibility. At the same time, it is completely impervious to temperature. As is the case for most sport helmet manufacturers, we use an EPS construction, although ours is specifically adapted to back protection requirements by means of a segmented, multi-layer approach. Besides featuring excellent shock-absorbing properties, this protection concept enables fall damage to be identified immediately, so that the protector can be individually replaced. 
• AIRO FLEX is an extremely sturdy material that is both permeable and flexible. We use it for our top-quality hip belts to ensure optimum load transfer to the hips, with simultaneous maximum ventilation – for utmost carrying comfort. 
• This system combines the essential back proximity for a back protector with maximum back ventilation. The back area is close fitting and features a large, central ventilation channel as well as two rows of “ventilation grids”: air mesh-covered EVA foam strips with ventilation holes and a special gabled groove reduce the contact surface on the back, which improves air circulation. The extra-wide, ergonomically shaped hip belt is made from our AIRO FLEX material. In this way, the main load – even in the case of a fully loaded backpack – is transferred to the hips, where it is fixed, while optimum breathability is ensured.
• Carabiner to attach keys
• Signal whistle
• Tool compartment
• The 2-STEP-ZIP SYSTEM zipper construction allows you to access your backpack main compartment in two ways: The full opening of the main compartment gives you unrestricted access to the entire contents. The topload version is convenient when you're on the go.
• Mobile phone compartment
• Clip to attach hydration system hose
• Compartment for optical glasses
• Hip belt pockets
• Protector attachment
• Loop for attaching a bike backlight.

What is the correct backpack size for me?

To ensure optimum protection and fit, we recommend to select a backpack based on your torso length and hip circumference. Below you will find detailed information on measuring the two lengths and the resulting backpack size.
As no two people arere built alike, it can be difficult to determine the right size for you.

Are the backpacks waterproof?

Our backpacks are water repellent. Our outer material is double-coated with PU on both sides, and the outer side has been treated with a water-resistant coating that ensure that water cannot enter the inside of the backpack too fast. However, as we do not weld the seams and zippers, we cannot guarantee that water will not enter the inside of the backpack, especially in heavy rain and long-term rain.

Can I use my EVOC BIKE / SNOW backpack for winter and summer sports?

Yes, our backpacks are designed in such a way that you can use them in summer and in winter.
If you want to use your backpacks in both seasons, you will not be able to benefit from sport-specific features though, like the pockets for your avalanche stuff or the bike specific tool pocket!

Can I use my EVOC PROTECTOR BACKPACK for other types of sport as well?

No, EVOC back protectors are only certified for biking and for use in winter sports. This means that we cannot guarantee that the back protector offers the same protection for other sports as it does for biking and winter sports.

Are EVOC PROTECTOR BACKPACKS compatible with a neck brace?

Unfortunately, our PROTECTOR backpacks are not compatible with a neck brace. When using a neck brace, the neck extension of the neck brace and the EVOC protector would lie on top of each other, which may impact on the EVOC protector's function.
