What is a Rocket Pooch?

Our Rocket Pooch was born from the idea to create a simple, micro pannier bikepacking bag that we would use on our own adventures. We chose fabrics to help repel water, a design that lends itself to dry bag technology, and wanted plentiful pockets for storage. The cage of course had to be titanium, for strength in structure, performance under load and it’s lightweight.

Initially designed to work with our Ride 400 fork, the titanium Rocket Cage can be fastened to most triple+ mount forks or rear stays with mounting points. The Rocket Pooch holds firmly thanks to a unique 4 point velcro strap system and can withstand any corrugated desert road and rugged mountain descent.

Quick Guide: Rocket Pooch Attachment

1 Ensure the top rear pocket is pulled down snugly over the top of the cage.
2 Loop the bottom strap through the lower cage hole and secure with velcro.
3 & 4 Loop both side-straps around the cage and secure with velcro.

FAQs

What do I get for $249? One Pooch bag and one titanium cage. Please select Two-Pack for a pair.
Can I use the bags with my Salsa Anything cage? Nope, different shape, not compatible.
What is Cordura Fabric? Originally developed for light yet durable technical packs requiring an optimal strength-to-weight ratio, CORDURA® Lite fabrics are woven with high tenacity nylon 6,6 filament yarns and offer enhanced tear and abrasion resistance.
Are they waterproof? Yes, the main part of the pooch will protect your gear when things get wet and wild. The outer pockets are not 100% waterproof.
How does it weigh? The titanium cage is 80 g and the Rocket Pooch bag is 170 g.
Can I buy the cages and bags separately? Yes, but keep in mind the Rocket Pooch bag and titanium Rocket Cage are designed to work together. The cage will work with other dry-sack type bags, but the bag will not work with other cages. The bags come with a 1-year warranty and the cages a 2-year warranty against manufacturing faults.
What’s the maximum volume and weight that a Rocket Pooch can carry? Each Rocket Pooch bag is 4L MAX, but should carry a max weight of 3kg. Please use according to your fork specification, ie: if your fork is rated to a max 5 kg, do not overload your Rocket Pooch bag.
Bolts: an important note If mounting to a carbon fork, please ensure you use M5 bolts (not included) that are the correct length for the fork. On a GXR Seek Fork, we recommend 12 mm M5 bolts. Bolts are not included.

Pooches...just sounds so cute

Been using the pooches on my Kevin for a number of overnights and weeklong trips. Love how they integrate well with my Kevin and the extra pockets are so handy for quick access items. I used to use the Apidura bags and it was a pain trying to dig out bits and bobs mid ride. Pooches and cages stay put even after rough stuff but I also add a nano voile for extra security. In terms of waterproofness, they aren't 100% watertight like the Apidura but I just make sure I put my moisture sensitive items in dry bags anyway. 100% will buy again.

great gear

My first bike packing trip on the Lavender Trail, and the Rocket's worked a treat and lived up to all my expectations. Great quality.

Top shelf product, light and well thought out

The beautifully welded Titanium cage is super light, and fits beautifully snug on my fork.
The bag is well thought out, practical and attaches to the cage like nothing else.

Haven't had the chance to try out if they're actually waterproof, but I have no reason to doubt the Curve design wizard crew. :-)

Rocket Fantastic

I have just spent a week exploring the Gammon ranges in SA with these front fork pooches. They met my every expectation and more! I put them to through every test from corrugations +++, sand, dust, creek crossings and rough dirt/gravel tracks. They were perfect. They didn't budge from their titanium cage -in fact, I didn't even know they were there. They stayed dust and water proof and carry a surprising amount of gear! I highly recommend adding them to your gravel/touring kit. Worth every cent!

Rocket cage

Real quality piece, I think even the best titanium cage on the market. Using it with aftermarket waterproof bags (4.5l) and fits perfect. I needed the one bag through volume otherwise I would had choosing for the combi cage and pooch. It’s light, quality made and holds yours bags tight.

Good job Curve Cycling crew!
