The PRO tank ring
A REVOLUTION'S EVOLUTION.
THE PRO TANK RING
With the PRO tank ring we have made the best system even better. It combines the advantages of a mechanical snap lock with those of patented magnet technology.
Almost as if by magic, the small but powerful guide magnets direct the piece of luggage exactly to the right place. Then the mechanism snaps shut and the upper ring engages with a clearly audible snap. Now the lower ring securely holds the tank bag in any situation, at high speeds on the highway as well as when driving through rough terrain.
The PRO tank ring combines two ingenious technologies into a fully mature product, because it meets all the requirements a tank ring could have:
It adapts discreetly to the design of the bike, does not protrude and provides a secure grip. The tank bag can be optimally positioned and operation is very easy: To refuel, simply unlock with a pull strap, remove the tank bag and the fuel cap can be opened as usual.
The PRO tank ring - simply even better.
SIMPLY BETTER
The PRO tank ring perfectly combines the innovative power of two German companies: The locking mechanism of the SW-MOTECH tank rings, which has been tried and tested for many years, can now be operated even more easily thanks to the magnetic guidance aid from Fidlock technology. We did not think we could make a top product even better, but the PRO tank ring is the best proof of the contrary.
THE PRO UPPER RING
At the request of many customers, we have significantly improved the positioning of the upper ring: the sliding upper ring is already pre-assembled on the tank bag with a guide rail and the tank bag does not need to be drilled. This way, the patent pending upper ring can be individually aligned on the guide rail on the underside of the tank bag. Once the right position has been found, the top ring is screwed tight. When changing to another motorcycle, the position of the upper ring can be adjusted accordingly.
THE STRENGTH OF MAGNETS
The magnetic guide, developed by Fidlock, complements the already advanced SW-MOTECH mechanical latching system: the magnets guide the upper ring into the appropriate position on the tank ring and the lock snaps firmly into place. The strength of the magnets supports the positioning of the tank bag. Fasten the tank bag in one simple step and drive off - your luggage is safe with this clever solution.
SECURE HOLD
We certainly do not have to mention that a SW-MOTECH tank ring has a tight and secure hold - but we still will: Because it is still the mechanical locking mechanism that secures the tank bag. The magnets bring the two parts of the ring together - then they have done their duty. The robust fibreglass reinforced plastic with its high-precision locking geometry is responsible for ensuring that the tank bag remains firmly in place in all situations. The basic principle remained the same - it's just even better now.
PRO TANK BAGS
THE NEW GENERATION
PRO TANK BAGS
We have continued developing the PRO tank bags, also thanks to the feedback and suggestions of our customers. Many have requested larger outer pockets, and so the new tank bag line offers larger and wider opening outer pockets for even more flexible luggage distribution.
The new generation of tank bags offers elegant and timeless design in conjunction with durable materials and sophisticated product features: Ballistic nylon material protects the luggage against shocks, wind and weather. On the top we have added laminated EVA material. It gives the bags a distinctive shape and, in conjunction with a MOLLE attachment, ensures a secure fit for the new smartphone and tablet mounts.
The new, factory-fitted upper ring guide rail allows a much easier adaptation of the tank bag to the shape of the tank and the ergonomic needs of the driver. Only the PRO tank bags offer this flexibility.
The PRO tank bag series is complemented by two waterproof tank bags - one for the PRO tank ring and one for strap attachment. Another model for strap attachment and a version with magnetic holder for steel tanks complete the PRO line.
With a total of eleven different tank bags, there is a suitable model for every rider.
