Giant Loop MoJavi Review

I decided to give the Giant Loop MoJavi a try for my Husky TE-510.

The bag is perfect for small enduro bikes that do not have a subframe or a rear rack.

The Husky is particularly hard to fit because it virtually has no side numberplates.



Looks I might not need a rack at all. The Mojavi is well built and fits the bike perfectly. It hold just enough for a day ride (tools, tubes, a bit of extra fuel and the light weight fleece for the morning chill).

Tools on top:


Fuel (2.1 liter Nalgene) on the right away from the exhaust:




Tubes and the rest can go on the left side.












While standing or sitting on the bike you don't even notice it's there. It even gives you plenty of room to slide backward to hop over logs or steep down hills.

I opted to notch the rear fender to give the bag a tighter hold.





Construction seems really solid.



I'm gonna load it up and give it a test run mid week on an enduro circuit.

I'll report back after the real test run.

Nice!

Pricey, but It looks like you get a quality, sewn in the USA product. I'm putting my spare change in a jar!

I rode with mine today, it is A+ 100% perfect!!! Held all my tools, and totally not able to tell it was there.

I had a small problem with my Coyote Bag (my Fault) All I can say is that the Owner of GL Dave Wachs is onr hlluva guy!

I plan on getting another Coyote as well when I scrounge up some $$.

The "problem" is that it does not like being underpacked/empty. I had just tools in it, and it flopped around. Eventually the buckle broke and the whole thing got into the tire. (I think I'm the ONLY person to EVER break a buckle. It was also the only time I've really had headphones in in the dirt, I was blasting through smooth fun whoops listening to Nine Inch Nails so I didn't hear it grinding. Ironically, I was in Mojave

The Mo'Javi can be left on the bike even if totally empty. They really are for two different uses, long camping trips to Nevada like you do the Coyote is perfect. Day rides doing jumps and such with buds the Mo'Javi is great. I just did a lot less long distance Adventure type stuff than I like to admit.

The 610 makes mounting either one challenging to say the least. You can tell the design is good and fits 99% of bikes better...

That is a very useful looking bit of kit. Just right for winter rides when gear tends to come off when you get hot and need to store stuff. I can see it replacing my bum bag and large back pack leaving me to only carry a smaller camel pack.

Yeah, the bad think is the Mo'Javi AND the coyote are both really good, (and expensive) and you "need" them for different types of riding that you do.

Nice action pics Kelly! The bag looks nice and tight to the bike.

The Transalp practically rides it's self...

I liked this picture better...



Later,

Kelly, are you going to carry these ?
