Fork Bags

• Rule of thumb when using any dry bag - never trust it completely if you have items that must not get wet, such as underwear or sleeping bag. Even the best welded dry bag may fail sometime. Pack those things into something like an Ultra-sil Nano dry bag or carry one with you. Water has strange ways of getting into places.
• This dry roll is not intended for kayaking or pack rafting. It will perform in brief river crossings or submersion.
• It's ideal if you can stuff your sleeping bag into a skinny stuff sack and roll your sleeping mat around it, then pack straight into the dry roll.
• Avoid putting items with sharp or hard edges into the dry roll. The RPET film backing can wear thin over time.
• Push as much air out of the bag as you can, before rolling the ends.

• To clean, soak and wash in cold water, scrub with plastic bristle brush.
• If you have to use a cleaning product, avoid fabric softeners.
• DO NOT IRON. Ultra fabric in particular, is extremely sensitive to direct heat and will shrink.
• DO NOT dry clean or tumble dry.

With the many variables in bikepacking conditions, bike setups and varying items that may be packed into a dry roll, Paper Roads does not take responsibility for puncture damage for this product. It is your responsibility to ensure the bag is not rubbing on sharp protruding parts and that there are no sharp objects or things with rough edges packed into it. If you find puncture damage, please trace back to the cause of it if you'd like to contact Paper Roads. One example was a bag that had been tied to a pannier rack, rubbing on a metal strut that had been roughly sawn off.

There is risk involved in using ultra-light fabrics and they do not last forever. If this concerns you, you may be looking at using a tougher but heavy bag made from TPU, similar to what's used for pack rafting.
