Our 237th Collective Reward comes courtesy of Revelate Designs in Alaska, whose stable, waterproof, user-friendly Portage Panniers took home a medal in our 2025 Bikepacking Awards. One randomly selected site supporter will win a pair. Find details here…

Following many years of development, Alaska’s Revelate Designs released their holster/drybag system, the Portage Panniers, at the tail end of last year. Logan had a set in for testing over several months, and he liked them so much that they ended up taking home a silver medal in our 2025 Bikepacking Awards. Most notably, he praised the rock-solid mounting system, rugged waterproof construction, sweet-spot size, and ease of loading and unloading. For our latest Collective Reward, one member of the Bikepacking Collective will take home a set in their choice of size—up to a $299 value for our lucky winner.

Revelate Designs Portage Panniers Review

Available in 10-, 14-, and 18-liter versions, the Revelate Designs Portage Panniers offer tons of packing versatility to suit the needs of various riders, whether they’re heading out for a weekend ride or crossing a continent. Because of its two-piece holster and drybag, the Portage system enables users to remove their waterproof bags at camp, leaving the holster securely attached for easy repacking. An inventive mounting system and a three-strap compression system hold everything snugly in place while bouncing down rugged trails, and hardwearing fabrics and materials help ensure they’ll hold up to years of use.
