Our 240th Collective Reward giveaway comes from Nick and the team at Rogue Panda in Flagstaff, Arizona, who are setting up one randomly selected site supporter with a trail-friendly Kaibab cargo cradle system. Find details here…
Released earlier this year, the Rogue Panda Kaibab is an innovative front cargo-carrying system that combines a steerer mount with an elegant collar that lives on the bike and solves one of the category’s biggest headaches. It helps preserve the bike’s natural handling, keeping the load as close to the frame as possible, and quickly and easily dismounts when not in use. Logan and Neil thoroughly tested the Kaibab on technical singletrack around Oaxaca and Colorado, where they found that it practically disappeared, even when fully loaded. Based on their mutual endorsement, we’re excited to give one to one member of the Bikepacking Collective for our latest Collective Reward. That’s a $205 value for our lucky winner.
Speaking to the Kaibab’s mounting system, Logan wrote in his review, “The steerer collar is genuinely clever and clean, and the fact that it can stay on the bike when not in use is a unique upside. On the trail, the cradle delivers exactly what steerer-mounted designs should: zero rotation, a low center of gravity, and a load position that fades into the background once you start riding,” going on to call it one of the best front cargo solutions for suspension-equipped bikes he’s encountered in well over a decade of testing. Despite its class-leading stability, the Kaibab weighs just 250 grams with straps thanks to its ultralight aluminum and carbon fiber construction. You can learn more in our in-depth review or via the product page at Rogue Panda.
