Inspired by the hydration packs we use for backcountry skiing and mountain biking, we set out to design a completely different kind of tank bag. The Nomax comes with a 2L hydration reservoir and tons of storage for all those little things you want to organize and access quickly. To top it off, the bag unclips from the bike quickly and easily and transforms into a fully functional backpack.
After talking to hundreds of riders around the world, and combining that input with our own personal wants and needs, we decided that, rather than start with a traditional 'toaster' shape, we would divide the Nomax's space into six vertical layers, each with its own specific mission. We compiled a massive list of the things people store in their tank bags and found the majority of the items on the list were very small. A vertical layout maximizes the utilization of space without making the bag too tall.
The top layer of the Nomax features three columns of MOLLE webbing (made from die cut Hypalon), which can be used to mount our rain-proof MOLLE Map Pocket, or other MOLLE-compatible items like our Navigator Cell Phone Pocket. It's also a great place to store a MOLLE-compatible multi-tool, fixed-blade knife, or protective cell phone holder. MOLLE webbing enables you to customize the rider-facing top layer of the Nomax to suit your individual travel style. Some riders like a map pocket, some don’t.
Below the MOLLE webbing, the next layer is an expandable beavertail. If you already have some of our other bags, you know how handy a beavertail can be. On the Nomax, the beavertail serves as a quick-stash spot for things like sunglasses, gloves, snacks, or even a small DSLR camera. If you use it for your DSLR, we provided webbing loops on the beavertail side bellows, so you can clip the D-rings on your camera case directly to the bag. Inside the beavertail, we added a pocket for an InReach or SPOT, and there's a gated clip to hold your GPS/camera/beacon lanyards so nothing tumbles out if your bike goes down.
The third layer zips back into your lap, and is specifically designed for small-item organization: things like charging cables, pens, change, batteries, earplugs, chapstick, passport, and bike documents. There are six mesh pockets, three elastic cable holders, two pen holders, and a fleece-lined glasses pocket. No more tangled soup of miscellaneous items floating around in the bottom of your tank bag, everything has a home.
The fourth layer is a large open compartment, featuring plenty of space for bulkier items like extra maps, spare gloves, wallet, CCW, and food. There are two large mesh pockets (one with sidewalls and one flat), which are available if you need them, but compress out of the way if you don't. Also, for contact lens wearers, on the foam-reinforced sidewall there's a removable lens case holder, which can be rotated to keep the cases vertical depending on the orientation of the bag.
Under the main compartment, accessible from a pocket at the top of the bag, there's a long, flat pocket that accommodates a 2L hydration reservoir, which is included with the bag. In warmer climates and on long distance trips, you can relocate the weight of your drinking water from your backpack to the tank. If you'd rather keep the Nomax as tight as possible to the bike, and/or if you'd like to maximize space in the main compartment, you can remove the reservoir and store it elsewhere on the bike.
The sixth and final layer of the Nomax houses a quick-stash spot for two sewn-on, crushable backpack straps. Simply unclip the Nomax from the bike, pull out the backpack straps, clip them to the D-rings at the bottom of the bag, and the Nomax converts into a fully functioning hydration pack. The side straps, which normally connect the Nomax to the bike, now become your waist strap. We use these backpack straps on dualsport trips all the time, from morning hikes to running errands around town. And the best part is that the Nomax doesn't feel like a 'tank bag on your back.' It looks, feels, and functions like a normal backpack.
The Nomax includes a waterproof rain cover, with a welded-seam top panel and sealed seams on the side, to keep your belongings dry in a heavy downpour. There's a stash-spot for the rain cover on the top of the bag, and a leash so it doesn't get lost. Also, hidden away in two of the zipper pulls, you’ll find a SIM card tool and storage compartment, and a safety whistle for emergencies.
After years of design and development work, plus tons of real world input from the riding community and from our own trips, we've tried our best to design the ultimate adventure touring tank bag. We hope you like it!

Bag Care Pointers:
Product Creation at Mosko is an effort born of necessity. Everyone on our team rides – and time on the trail translates to an innovative, always improving product line. Crafting gear that will outperform in even the most harsh riding conditions means we make no compromise, ever.
"So versatile and user friendly, this makes my rides better in every way. Ease of access for my camera, spare gloves, small tools, wallet, etc... Does everything that I wanted a tank bag to do and then other things I didn't even know I needed. I can't go back to anything else, I'm too spoiled now.”
I've been wanting a convenient way to carry my essentials without having to stow them away in my panniers/top case. This bag allows me to carry water, a small first aid kit, some essential tools, and several other convenient items like a small bottle of hand sanitizer, microfiber towel, charging cables, etc. without having to keep my panniers on the bike. When I was trying to decide about which bag to get to fit my needs, I had to be cognizant of the incredibly tight steering radius of the Africa Twin. The AT turns so tightly that it doesn't leave much room between the most extreme positions of the handlebars on the tank. I decided to roll the dice and grab this bag, knowing that it was just within the width I have between the bars at full lock. It fits great, and the bars just barely touch the bag at full lock. Other tank bags I've used have been just wide enough that the bag would push buttons on the controls at full lock and even cause issues trying to lock the steering out when leaving the bike, but this bag doesn't have that problem. As most folks say, this is a good bag if you plan to really compartmentalize what you carry in it. It is not good for large, bulky items, but the main compartment is large enough to carry, in my case, my tire inflator, a power pack, my leatherman, and a small pair of binoculars for hiking off of the bike. Even with all of that, I could probably still fit a couple of trail snacks in the main compartment. I tend to do quite a bit of hiking off of the bike with my partner, so it's nice that this bag can also become my hiking pack in just a few seconds. Without having to take an extra bag, I can have water, room for snacks, and first aid essentials when I'm hiking out on the trail. If you aren't trying to carry too many bulky items, I think it would be really hard to go wrong with this bag.
This is a great bag. I am a "adventure wanna be" but still appreciate good gear. The Nomax bag helps me stay organized in my daily urban adventures but still functions as a true adventure piece of gear when called upon to do so. Being able to quickly disconnect to fuel up and to use the backpack straps to carry gear when getting off the bike is great. It is pricey but as the adage goes "you get what you pay for".
The Mosko Moto folks thought of everything here and delivered a package that I am confident will meet my needs for years to come. They provided me with all the information I needed to purchase this bag on their website and made its purchase and delivery easy. Thank you.
Just took this bag on my 890 down to Baja for 1700 miles. The bag was perfect. Simple to remove for gas & for the night. Kept the essentials organized and easily accessible. The rain guard came in handy the last 75 miles & everything was dry when I got home. Highly Recommend!!
As you can imagine, i do overland trips and practice hard enduro during weekends and holidays. I must say i´m no pro. Just an average Joe doing what he loves… once said, i will also admit that sometimes i go crazy… this story is one of those. So, i heard of this 5 days cross country international rally, all FIMM rules and Dakar style; and i couldn´t say no. Now, if this wasn´t enough of a challenge, i decided to ride it with my reliable 2018 KTM 690 Enduro bike, instead of a rented 450 or 500 rally motorcycle, the natural standard for a race of this kind. And considering the 300 pounds i would have to lift everytime i loose my footing, having a hydration/toolkit/documents/medikit backpack on would be my absolute doom. Enter the Nomax. When i got it, i was skeptical about the strenght of the clips to hold it in place. A 5kg bag, bouncing and pounding through 1000+ miles of high speed offroad racing, and held only by 4 zip ties, 2 straps and 5 plastic clips… But i was wrong! It held! Even more: she stood there after 8 hard falls and the whole race, releasing me of the hydration bag, and allowing me easy Access to all the goodies you can carry. In the end i finished 7th place (of 18 players in my category) and unharmed. The moral in this story is: i vouch for this bag!
