Our 258th gear giveaway comes from the small team at Revelate Designs in Alaska, who will hook up a couple of randomly selected winners with Burrote rack-top bags and matching Constrictor Straps. Find details on how you can win and sign up to support our work as a member of the Bikepacking Collective here…

Unveiled at this year’s Sea Otter, the Revelate Designs Burrote is a rack-top bag that boasts a waterproof, welded construction, roomy exterior pockets, a tapered profile, and bungees for lashing on extra gear. Paired with the matching Constrictor Straps, the Burrote is a lightweight, durable, user-friendly hauling system with a sweet-spot capacity of about 10 liters. For Collective Reward #258, two randomly selected winners will take home a Burrote and a pair of Constrictors, valued at $164. If you’re a member of the Bikepacking Collective, you’re automatically entered to win!

Revelate Designs Constrictor Straps Review

Neil and Miles both tested the Burrote on bikepacking trips around Colorado and British Columbia (read the review here), and they were equally impressed by its rock-solid stability, useful exterior pockets, and out-of-the-way shape. The Constrictors, made from UV-stabilized polyurethane with fiberglass-reinforced nylon buckles, stayed in place over the bumpiest terrain and can attach to any rack rail diameter. The Burrote, built from 420d TPU-laminated ripstop with C0 DWR and Hypalon reinforcements, proved hard-wearing and impervious to the elements. They found the Burrote and Constrictor combination a worthwhile upgrade over a standard dry bag, simplifying packing, riding, and unpacking. We’re excited for a couple of lucky winners to give the system a whirl. You can find full details about the Burrote over at RevelateDesigns.com.
