I want an Arkel Tailrider

[gussington]

Have been eyeing up these bags online and they look amazing and just what I am after - but no one seems to sell them in the UK!

Have emailed Arkel to ask, but no reply as yet.

Anyone any idea of where I can get one of these?

I have considered ordering one from America, but the price with carriage will be pretty mental!

Alternatively - if anyone can suggest a bag that is as good that I can get here - I may consider it.

read a review of these once in adventure cycling; they raved.

Won't http://www.arkelpann...trunk-bags.html the UK specific bit of their web site do?

I got mine from Bikefix.co.uk but they aren't showing them on their website any more. I'd give them a ring.

EDIt: Edinburgh Bike coop also stock some Arkel products so may be able to get one for you.

Cheers Greg - not entirely sure how I missed that so will order one now while being slightly embarrassed at my incompetence!

 

[gussington]

Right - ordered it! Would normally shy away from a)spending that much - and b)buying something like that without seeing it first. They simply look to me like the best out there for what I need - so will wait and hope that they really are as good as they look!

I have one which I use on my tourer and trike. They are excellent bags. Wouldn't swap mine for any other rack bag.
