XLAB – Torpedo Kompact 500 Carbon Hydration System

XLAB – Torpedo Compact 500 Carbon Hydration System

 

Using the acclaimed design features of the Torpedo Kompact 100, but now more lightweight, streamlined and secure.

 

The Product:

The award winning features of the Kompact 100 have been used to create this lightweight carbon update – the XLAB Torpedo Kompact 500.

The carbon is strong but very light, so you can travel faster on your bike. The Kompact 500 also grips your bike’s frame better than ever, thanks to its SecureClip brackets, which just click on and can be secured even tighter with Velcro.

The Kompact 500 is ideal for the toughest road conditions you’ll face, the 7lb grip force meaning that any bumps won’t dislodge your system and its super-reflective cooling drinks bottle. The system comes fully assembled and contains a mounting plate, Garmin-specific computer mount, cage and Cool Shot bottle.

 

Key Features:

• LIGHTWEIGHT – without the bottle or computer, the system weighs just over 154g (less than 6oz).

• ULTRA-SIMPLE – the system comes assembled, all you have to do it fill a bottle with your drink of choice, clip the system into place between your handlebars, and fasten down the Velcro strap.

• ULTRA COOLING BOTTLE – the bottle is super-reflective to keep your drinks insulated.

• WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION – the design of the system means that the weight from your bottle is concentrated on the stem of your handlebars, rather than the bars themselves. This makes your handlebars lighter and easier to control when you’re racing.

• ULTRA-COMPACT – more room (and control) for you on your handlebars.

• COLOUR CUSTOMISABLE – you can change the colour of the Raptor Cage to suit you, whether you want it to blend in with or stand out from the rest of your set-up.

• COMPUTER-COMPATIBLE – designed for easy and practical placement of Garmin Bike Computers, Forerunners and Fenix Watches.
