APIDURA Aero System | A Racing Packing System Fusing Aerodynamic Performance and Storage Capacity
Carrying luggage contributes to speed. A new aero solution born for racing.
Gravel races and ultra-distance events require carrying provisions, batteries, and essential gear. However, this storage often compromises aerodynamic performance. APIDURA's "Aero System" is an innovative packing system developed to solve this problem.
Through repeated wind tunnel testing and CFD analysis, the top tube bag and frame bag have been integrated. By optimizing airflow, an average energy saving of 5W has been achieved. This product is a novel concept that functions not only as a bag for carrying luggage but also as an aerodynamic device.
Practical usability in races has also been thoroughly pursued, including magnetic closures for quick access during races and internal reinforcement structures to enhance luggage stability. It is a next-generation packing system for riders who demand speed and functionality.

This product has a fundamentally different concept from typical frame bags. Its greatest appeal is that it is designed not just for carrying luggage, but also to enhance the overall aerodynamic performance of the bike.
When actually used in races or long rides, you'll feel the heightened sense of unity with the bike, in addition to the convenience of quick access to provisions and mobile batteries. For those who want to maximize efficiency in gravel races and ultra-distance events, the Aero System should be a very attractive option.
💬 STAFF REVIEW
The top tube and frame bag are integrated, reducing air resistance during riding and saving an average of 5 watts. You'll actually feel like pedaling is lighter.
It's also exceptionally easy to use and offers excellent storage, with the attention to detail you'd expect from Apidura. This is a limited pre-sale at 10 stores nationwide, with very limited quantities, so act fast.
