Bombtrack Hook 2 in bikepacking review

Oct 2020 · Benjamin Topf

Hardly any other German brand has made such a name for itself in the international bikepacking scene as Bombtrack. The Hook 2 combines features from numerous disciplines, including a big portion of bikepacking DNA. Is that enough to hold its own against the competition?
