DESIGN

The Trail 16L features two five liter side bags, expandable to eight liter, made from DWR-coated 420D nylon 66 ripstop fabric mounted to a custom CURV® composite harness.

With the capacity to fit two 1L MSR fuel bottles in each five liter bag in the standard low-profile configuration, the bags quickly expand by an additional three liters via a DWR-coated YKK zipper expander panel with glove-friendly zipper pulls to accommodate additional items like a tow strap, hand saw, jacket, and tubes.

At just three inches high in standard configuration and five inches high when expanded, the low-profile construction of the Trail 16 keeps the bags hugged close-in to the bike and allows riders to slide over the bag for pivot turns when terrain gets techy.

This bag can handle some light rain showers and splashes from stream crossings but is not waterproof. The DWR-coated coil zippers are covered by storm flaps, and the DWR-coated nylon ripstop fabric sheds droplets, though this bag is not seam-sealed. If you're planning on riding in the rain and need to keep items totally dry, we suggest putting them in a small dry bag inside the Trail 16L bag or checking out our 100% waterproof Reckless 10 system.

The CURV® composite harness material provides a rigid, rackless, universal mounting system that attaches to the bike with four cam straps, allowing the Trail 16L to easily transfer between different bikes. The rear of the harness has multiple mounting options: choose from the included webbing cam straps that wrap around the fender or tail rack, or use the included aluminum Cleat Kit tie-downs to attach webbing straps to rear fender top. The harness also comes Gnoblin-ready for those choosing to upgrade from the standard rear webbing straps to our stainless steel quick-mount system.

The Trail 16L has two width settings, narrow and wide, providing fit options for small enduros up to larger ADV bikes. The center of the harness comes with pre-cut slots for Voile straps, providing the option to stash a jacket, small dry bag, or additional fuel bottles.

The two-piece harness is backed with removable closed-cell EVA foam, which provides a replaceable wear layer to help protect the bike and harness.

If you have a bike whose tail pipe gets super hot, we've included a laser-cut anodized aluminum exhaust Heat Shield with band clamp attachment to protect the bag and exhaust.

Weighing in at just over 3 lbs, Mosko's lightest luggage system is a streamlined trail bag designed for all-day singletrack rides that require additional gear-carrying capacity.

  • Hardware pack (three t-nuts, three screws with Loctite, Allen key, CURV washer, CURV washer plate).
IMPORTANT NOTES
  • Exhaust heat damage is not covered under warranty. Please use the included heat shield and follow the installation instructions carefully.
  • On dual-exhaust bikes or bikes with especially high/exposed pipes, you will need a second heat shield, available for purchase in our website's Hardware & Parts section.
  • Contact between soft luggage (no matter how soft) and your bike's plastics or painted surfaces will cause cosmetic wear to the bike over time because accumulated dirt is abrasive. If that is important, try applying a clear protective film (like Allstar Performance Tape or 3M Polymask Protective Tape) to your bike.
  • Different bikes and installation approaches present different wear points to the Reckless Trail 16L harness. After installation, go for a short test ride, then check for wear points. Adjust the harness position, file down sharp rack edges, or apply a sacrificial wear patch as needed. Continue to check for high-wear points over time, but remember that the harness is made to take a lot of abuse. Some visible wear is normal, and in no way does it affect the strength or waterproofness of the luggage.

Trail 16L

Invisible

Got this thing and promptly put about 200mi of mixed use on my 300XCW consisting of tight singletrack, tech gnar, fire road, and pavement. It is completely locked down to the bike, un-noticeable and invisible...exactly how it should be. The only time I noticed it at all was throwing my leg over. It's the perfect size and profile - just big enough to get an extra tube, a few tools, snacks, and a hat in and that was in the smaller config. Never got hung it up once and brushed up against a lot of shit. I found out it's pretty bomber as well when I was speared by a downed tree and subsequently looped out the bike leaving zero signs of damage to the bag. Countless creek crossings and miles of dirt, still looks new.

Honorable mention goes out to the Gnoblin, which IMO is one of the key differentiators to the whole system. I'm using it on the Trail16 and the Reckless40. It's so well thought out and designed...it's extremely small, lightweight yet provides a rear anchor point to the bags, completely locking them down from any movement, yet allows the bags to be easily removed in 60 seconds.

Super light (I replaced a reckless 10 with this), and love the slimmed down profile even when expanded. Perfect day trip setup!

Great packs for short day trips

I bought these because my 80L reckless packs were too big for everyday short day trips. They are high quality and sizes just right. I'm able to pack all my tools, spare parts, supplies on the bike instead of in my backpack.

Exactly what I needed!

Got a chance to take the Trail 16 out on its first proper dual-sport adventure this weekend and it performed flawlessly! I wanted to get my tool kit and tire repair kit out of my backpack and also have a place to store extra fuel and the Trail 16 is the perfect size. You can't tell it's there even when riding tight technical single track, and its really rugged and held up well to tip-overs. Highly recommend!
