Petaluma, CA (PRWEB) August 30, 2017 -- Following the success of the K.U.D.U pack – the only bike pack on the market with CE Level 2 back protection, CamelBak completely overhauled its protection line and doubled its offering for 2018. New in the spring 2018 line, the T.O.R.O.™ series is designed in two sizes with entry level pricing, while still maintaining the high-level CE Level 2 standard the K.U.D.U. series is built on. The T.O.R.O.™ 14 and T.O.R.O.™ 8 are the perfect balance of price and peace of mind. Utilizing a narrow-gauge design, the T.O.R.O. allows you to send it harder and farther than you have before knowing you have the world’s leading protection at your back.
The revamped K.U.D.U.™ 10 and K.U.D.U.™ 20 now have the largest full-back protection coverage on the market, and not only that - the entire pack has been redesigned to allow the rider to remove all cargo and run the back protector alone. While zipped-off, the Impact Protector™ panel remains where you want it, close to your body, and can hold gear in two jersey-style pockets.
2018 also brings chest protection to the CamelBak line. The new camera-ready Sternum Protector is designed to be worn on the front of the body and integrates with your pack’s sternum strap to give the rider a secure fit while adding the CE Level 2 level protection on the front.
