EVERYBODY DESERVES A GOOD B A C K PA C K . A good backpack is so much more than a sack with straps. Backpacks like shoes have different fits, sizes and intended purposes. A backpack sometimes seems to be the most underestimated piece of equipment. Look at people’s faces when they carry a pack around at airports, train stations, in the city, on their way to a hostel or a camp site. Even better, look at their bags. Backpacks always tell the story. You’ll see people struggle through their day, all the while their packs are hanging and dangling. It’s common in everyday life for people to complain about (minor) backaches. If you plan to carry a backpack on your next adventure or even daily, invest a little extra time to seek out good advice and pick a pack that fits your back and your needs best. BACH builds packs that fit and accompany you for a long time. It is our mission to design backpacks that carry lighter, so that you can enjoy the journey more.

The Great BACH Packing and Construction Company is established on Michael Street in Kilkenny. The first packs made by the 7 employees were external frame packs based on the famous Camp Trails backpacks from the USA.

1979

1982

In the eighties BACH witnessed and participated in the biggest innovation period ever in backpacks. From an external frame, packs were now developed with internal frames. BACH was present right at the beginning of this exciting period in history and were the first to introduce an internal frame system that was truly adjustable. It was called Orthoflex and the patent was pending for years….

02

As buyers for the Swiss Outdoor and Travel chain Transa, Martin and Beat travel to Kilkenny looking for outdoor equipment made in Europe. Overwhelmed by the Minimal Order Quantity (“less than one piece could be difficult”) they bring the first 20 packs home to sell at the Transa shop in Zürich.

1985

1989

In the summer of 89 the Swiss caused a little uproar in rural Kilkenny. After a sudden and unexpected bankrupt they took over the factory, inventory and all its workers and re-named it «TransBach Ltd». Although everybody worked hard, the first achievement was that turnover of the local pub became inversely proportional to the BACH turnover. As it seemed, the world was not yet ready for the influences from a young ambitious Swiss mountain guide by the name of Martin Wiesmann.

The birth of the BACH Overland. A true BACH classic which was named after the first extended overland Trans Sahara expeditions by the founders of Transa in the late seventies. Even after ist fifth makeover the key-features never changed. The Overland still has the shape and usabilty of a suitcase but the carrying comfort of a trekking pack.

1991

1995

It was a rough start in the late eighties. Finding out that speaking English is not the same as understanding Irish. But with the help of clever Swiss engineering and Irish work ethics, development starts to head in the right direction. Ultimately better products result in better sales and this in turn results in a brand new building on Hebron Industrial Estate in Kilkenny. Finally we get more space. Bridget is now in charge of 30 employees and all BACH products are crafted with pride in Ireland. The latest dream is to buy a forklift.


Things go fast now. The company is growing and this results in a demand for more products that we can produce in Ireland. The stable economic and political climate of Vietnam looks appealing so we start producing there. BACH now even has a website, but still no forklift.

2000

2004

The forklift finally arrives! Tony is a happy man and no longer needs swiss mountain guide biceps for shipping boxes. In the name of love for the mountains and his girl, Martin moves back to Switzerland and with him the BACH design studio.

At the outdoor show in 2013 a nice Japanese guy shows up with a catalogue from the 90s in his hand, asking if we still offer the ‘Flintstone’. We don’t, but ask Bridget if she still has the original patterns. She does and she makes two pieces. Before we know it, we are big in Japan. It is the start of a new adventure and new friendships.

2013

2016

Long lasting partnerships with ACAPULKA lead to numerous expeditions to the poles and other remarkable achievements carried out with pulling harnesses and covers made by BACH.

BACH EQUIPMENT and SCOTT Sports have agreed to join forces for the future. This will help BACH to strengthen its global position and further spread its mission to make better packs available for everybody.

2019

2017

The launch of our Weatherproof concept and positive response from the market provides BACH an entry to the USA. It is too early to say but time will tell if America is already ready for BACH.

For Leica we designed and produced a Red Dot Award Winning product which caries their measuring device.

TREKKING I TRAVEL >40L

BACKPACK CONCEPTS A backpack should primarily fit on the back. It should be as easy to carry as possible and still offer enough space for your equipment. However, “one size fits all” doesn’t exist. That is why BACH offers different volumes, back lengths and models with differently adapted components (hip belt, shoulder straps, packing bag). A. THE APPROACH OF STEADY & HEAVY LOADS Traditionally, hip belts were padded very rigidly, fastened as stiffly as possible to the packsack and braced like a barn door. The very firm fit of the hip belt is often an advantage with loads over 25kg and in rather gentle terrain. However, since the body wants to twist against the backpack when walking, a fixed hip belt leads to lateral swinging of the load in the shoulder area and often to abrasion points on the hip bones. B. THE DYNAMIC APPROACH The movement of the hip and the twisting of the upper body (torsion) should also be possible when the bag is loaded. With every step, your upper body slightly twists against your hips. When walking, your hip moves sideways as well as forwards and backwards. BACH constructs the back system in such a way that does not interfere with the dynamics of your movements. With normal loads in the trekking range (15-25 kg) and uneven terrain, the advantages of the dynamic approach clearly outweigh: the load is better balanced on the back. For heavier loads, it can be advantageous to be able to further fasten the hip belt.

06

LOAD LIFTERS The load lifters perform two functions: · stabilization of your load and prevent the pack from falling backwards · take some weight off your shoulders and transfer it to the hip belt The correct size of your backpack is determined by the angle of the load lifters to your shoulders. On the other hand, this angle depends on the activity you’ll be doing with your backpack. The higher the weight of the pack, the bigger the angle needs to be to perform the above functions. However, the bigger the angle of the load lifters, the less headroom you get. Therefore, we differentiate between (1) Trail | Travel and (2) Trekking | Travel.

PROPERLY ADJUST YOUR BACKPACK Put some weight into your BACH pack. Slightly loosen upper and lower load control straps. Put pack on your shoulders and slowly tighten shoulder straps until your pack feels comfortable. If you close hip belt now it will nicely hug your hips. To distribute more weight to your hips, you may loosen shoulder straps slightly. Position the sliders of the load lifters slightly in front of your shoulder. The load lifters stabilize your load and prevent pack from falling backwards. For best result tighten the load lifters slightly. You may (in uneven terrain) or may not (in even terrain) tighten the lower load control straps for firmer fit of the hip belt. 1. Set shoulder straps By adjusting the shoulder straps (or exchange them for another size) you’re able to make two major modifications: varying their length and setting the angle between the two straps around your neck. A. (M.A.D.) Pull out yellow straps from behind lumbar pad and loosen 25mm buckles. Set shoulder harness 10-20mm below the highest possible position. If you are a small or slim person you may set shoulder straps lower down and vice versa. Tighten the yellow straps and tuck them away. Check: when correct the shoulder harness sits 10-20mm below the highest possible position.

2. Insert hip belt Insert hip belt behind lumbar pad and anchor in lowest position. Connect lower load control straps to the 25mm buckles. 3. Connect Angel Wings Our M.A.D. back system comes with Angel Wings. These diagonal straps bring the load closer to your back and reduce the lateral movement of your pack. Please thread and adjust buckles as shown. Try the effect of the Angel wings once you are on the trail. Most people like Angel Wings slightly tightened when walking in flat areas or downhill. Since the pack is sitting more stable on your shoulders we consider this approach the best solution for normal loads (15 to 20kg) and uneven terrain. When walking with heavier loads, it can be an advantage if you can fix the hip belt more stable. 4. Chest strap To reduce pressure points on shoulders and arms close the chest strap. For easy breathing you may have to slide the chest strap up or down.

B. (Expedition) The clip-in harness can easily be adjusted at the given positions.

FIT GUIDE YOUR TORSO LENTGH MATTERS. WHICH BACH BACKPACK SIZE FITS YOUR BACK? Since each person has different body proportions, most BACH backpacks come in different back lengths. Basically, the larger the volume of the backpack (and thus the weight carried), the more you want to relieve your shoulders and carry the weight on the hip belt. This can only be achieved with a correspondingly steep angle of the loadlifter. The following illustration will help you find the backpack size that fits your back.

STEP 1

A few comments on this: 1. This approach is meant as a general guidance for you to find the size of backpack based on your specific needs. 2. Our packs will join your life for quite a while. It’s best to try one before you buy one to be sure it fits your back. 3. If you are unsure which back length will fit you best: opt for the larger size of the backpack (especially for large volume backpacks).

Bending the aluminium stay

Cleaning

Adjustable HDPE-framesheet with aluminium 6082-TF stay To further improve the fit of your pack you may bend the aluminium stay. Use a plier to take the stay out of your pack without removing the HDPE frame sheet. The stay should follow the contour of your back in slightly bent forward position.

Clean your pack with a damp cloth and a brush.

Trekking Series: 2 different shoulder straps: Men: long, straight | Women: shorter, more contoured Trekking Series: 4 different sizes of hip belts Standard = M | Women = S

LOAD YOUR PACK For best carrying comfort we recommend distributing load as shown above. Heavy gear close to your back. Light stuff close to bottom and outer part of your pack. Medium weight in hood and side pockets.

RECOMMENDED MAXIMUM WEIGHT A very common question is how much weight one can carry with our packs. Simple questions don’t always have simple answers. Although we engineered our different carrying systems with different loads in mind it is not going to be the pack that will complain first. Our trekking and travel packs easily take 100kg. Question is; will you? The amount of weight you can carry is a matter of personal strength, training and terrain. Our advise should always be taken with caution and is nowhere near a guarantee that you will have nothing but fun carrying 35 kg through a dense forest. We believe our packs carry lighter and with more comfort than others but they don’t move without you putting some effort in it. 10

Storage Do not store a laminated hip belt folded or concealed behind the cover flap of your travel pack. Incorrect storage may dramatically reduce the performance of your hip belt and may result in permanent damage. Any laminated fabric should not be stored and exposed to high humidity. Repairs Should you be one out of 10’000 people ever needing our repair service, take a deep breath, look at yourself and let the feeling sink in: you are one of the few people in this world to have this experience. If ever possible we will repair your companion. Your pack has gone a long way with you, so why should we shred your shared memories by simply replacing it. Warranty All BACH gear is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for a period of 5 years after purchase. Normal wear and tear such as broken buckles or worn out zips cannot be claimed under this warranty. The lifespan you can reasonably expect depends rather on the amount of abuse your pack gets than on the actual age as such. But don’t worry: If BACH built it, BACH will stand behind it.

B A C H M AT E R I A L S BACH materials are lightweight yet strong. We think going the extra yard is always worth the price.

FABRIC

ZIPPERS

CORDURA® has made its name as the best yarn for fabrics with high demand on abrasion and tear resistance which is a must-have for technical backpacks. Most of the BACH fabrics are made by Leejo Textiles in Seoul, Korea who was the first CORDURA® licensed fabric manufacturer outside the USA.

Little parts - big difference! On all packs BACH is exclusively using high quality YKK zippers. Wherever applicable we use no. 10 zippers and don’t go smaller than no. 5. Since BACH started 40 years ago we have resisted the temptation to use smaller sizes and cheaper brands and this decision has proven to be right over the years. BACH always uses the zipper chain on the visible outside because it lasts 30% longer than the zipper chain used inside out with the webbing on the outside. BACH only uses silver nickel-plated zipper sliders, as these have a longer lifetime as their coloured counterparts (no matter if powder coated or any other dyeing technology).

1000D CORDURA® Classic is the toughest fabric BACH uses. It is extremely abrasion and tear resistant. The yarn is air-texturised, creating a matt and structured appearance and it is a good bit more abrasion resistant than Oxford Nylon or Polyester fabrics of similar weight. Comparing the 1000D CORDURA® Classic with the 420D Oxford Nylon it adds only about 30% extra weight by showing a tensile strength which is about 2.5 times stronger. It is used on exposed and important parts of our packs where compromises are not an option. 500D CORDURA® Classic is a little lighter than the 1000D and still convinces with excellent abrasion and tear resistance. The yarn is air-texturised, thinner and the weaving is denser resulting in a matt and soft appearance. N/420D CDR NH Dobby is a CORDURA® Nylon fabric. The weaving technique produces great tensile strength for its weight. It offers different technical arguments compared to 500D CORDURA® Classic fabrics. Power Mesh 840D is a bi-elastic 300g/m² mesh produced by the Korean company Young Poong. It is not only beautifully stretchy but also offers impressive abrasion characteristics – which is important for its often exposed position on stuffed pockets on the outside of our products. The 4-way Spandex with a reinforcing PU lamination is a stretchy fabric which is used on the inside of shoulder-straps and other places with body-contact where flexibility is important. The dense weaving with the PU lamination makes a nice soft touch by not absorbing any sweat or transferring colour.

FOAM Foams are available in a wide variety of specs. This is one of the reasons why it is important to assign a clear function to each foam. Basically, a distinction should be made between padding functionality (close to the body) and support functionality (further away from the body). Shoulder-straps BACH only uses 15mm or 20mm thick EVA foam between 22-25 kg (per cube yard) in the shoulder-straps of the large backpacks (45-100l). Over the past 40 years EVA 22-25 has proven to be a good compromise between comfort (soft), durability and equal weight distribution (hard, tough) with a high resilience. For our smaller models we mostly use 12mm thick EVA 20-22kg. This makes the straps subtler and adapts better to the shape of the shoulder with lower weight and the movement by keeping its supporting and protecting purpose. Because BACH uses high-quality EVA, the shoulder-straps retain their original properties over the years. Hip-belt

STRAPS / WEBBING BACH is using Nylon webbing. Nylon webbings are strong, abrasion and UV resistant, do not absorb any water and are well known from seat-belts in cars. BACH does not recommend the use of Polypropylene webbing on backpacks due to its lower resistance against UV-radiation which results in higher stiffness after few years. When buying webbing for the BACH packs we take special care to make sure that the webbing qualities are compatible with the buckles we use. It can be quite tricky to make sure that the combination webbing/buckle holds the required load. The webbing must not slip through the buckle but should be easily adjustable at the same time. And not only once but for all the years to come!

The foams in our M.A.D. and Expedition hip-belts are glued to the outer fabric, making them particularly rigid and three-dimensional. The interior padding is multi-layered, consisting of two layers EVA foam (closed cell) and one layer of PU foam (oben cell). In addition, the hip-belt is reinforced with an HDPE plate. The slightly lighter hip-belts of the Shield Pro carrying system consist of a layer PU foam for padding reasons and one layer Atilon foam for support. Back-panel In the back-panel we mainly use PU foams (open cell) that allow good ventilation, absorb little moisture and therefore dry quickly after rain and during perspiration.

BLUESIGN® Most of the BACH materials are Bluesign® certified. The Bluesign® system is the standard for a sustainable production. It eliminates harmful substances right from the beginning of the manufacturing process and sets and controls standards for an environmentally friendly and safe production. 12


B A C H M AT E R I A L S BUCKLES BACH has consistently been using Nylon buckles for the past 40 years even though the whole world seemed to use the cheaper POM (Polyoxymethylene, also known as Acetal) buckles. The polar expeditions supported by BACH and demanding customers in the cold Norwegian winters proved the decision for Nylon to be the right decision and accepting the higher price and the colour variety being reduced to black. EVERY PACK IS AS GOOD AS THE SUM OF ITS PARTS The field of polymers science has made huge progress in the past few years and BACH developed a range of new side-release buckles together with YKK that are especially designed for the newly created T-POM (Tough Polyoxymethylene). After intense testing down to -40° degrees Celsius in the lab and on many tours in harsh winter conditions BACH and YKK guarantee the same strength as the previous buckles even in these cold temperatures – immensely improving the usability of the side-release buckles. Most other buckles are still made of Nylon from the high-quality brands Duraflex and Woojin.

WEATHERPROOF

W E AT H E R P R O O F CONCEPT

PACK

TPU-LINER

WEATHERPROOF

We decided to call our bad weather series WEATHERPROOF and not waterproof. for two reasons: 1. in order to improve every day handling the new packs all have waterproofed main chambers combined with not waterproofed features and pockets (e.g. to separately store a wet tent from your dry stuff). 2. our personal experience shows that rolltops are perfectly protecting your stuff from rain in general, but they all ultimately leak when used for swimming or for instance, kayaking.

NO COMPROMISES by allocating specific functions to an inner, sealed layer and an outer protective surface we could avoid most compromises which normally hinder the every day performance of waterproof gear and were even able to add some so far not available functions and features. · no compromises regarding the design of the backpack itself: the taping of the TPU-Liner doesn’t need to follow the complex structure of the seams of the (outer) pack. This strongly increases the durability of the taping as (waterproof)-taped seams are known to be the most fragile part of a waterproof pack. · less taping is needed which reduces the risk of failure. · we used the strongest and most durable tape for our TPU-Liners in order to guarantee a long life of your WEATHERPROOF-pack.

OPTIMISE ABRASION & WEIGHT Our TPU-Liner is absolutely waterproof, lightweight and combined with the proper fabrics and high quality tapes extremely durable. Because the membrane faces the inside of the pack we were able to reduce seams to a minimum, to optimise the radius of curved sealing tapes whilst perfectly protecting the TPU-membrane and the sealing tapes from abrasion.

3D SMART DIVIDER

3D SMART DIVIDER

BACH 3D SMART DIVIDER: Perfect Load Control - Optimized Carrying Comfort The BACH 3D SMART DIVIDER is a clever solution that solves the very common problem of heavy stuff wanting to sink to the bottom of your pack. As we have seen in a separate chapter we want heavy stuff to stay close to your back for the most comfortable carrying experience. We cannot defy gravity but with the help of the diagonal 3D SMART DIVIDER heavy stuff now stops sinking sooner than with a traditional horizontal divider and it will stay close to your back. By packing the heavy items from the top and the light stuff stowed from the bottom you ensure the most ergonomic and efficient way of carrying your pack. You may choose to roll-up your 3D SMART DIVIDER and easily hide it to convert the pack in a one compartment pack with a comfortable front zip for easy access to all your gear from the top and the front of the pack.

Many things require proper planning and going on a trek is definitely one of them. The time you plan to stay away, the distance you wish to cover, combined with shape of the land and the climate all have effects on the gear and skillset you need. When the time comes to take the largest pack of your collection and you start packing the right tent, sleeping bag, mattress, stove, food, clothes, torch and everything else needed for a wilderness trekking, you already feel the blood rushing through your veins. But nothing beats the moment you step out of the car,

train or bus and start walking. Step by step, knowing that you come well prepared and having packed your entire house, supermarket, shopping mall and navigation system inside your pack is among the best feelings in life. You are completely independent and you have to rely on yourself, your equipment and your group for decisions on many fronts. Based on why you're there in the first place you can enjoy nature, being away from WiFi, take pictures or push your body and mind to the limit. I can’t help but thinking about my next packing list. 19

Hiking on trails is one the easiest ways to explore the outdoors. You need just a few items and skills depending on where you want to go. You meet new people and you discover new places in as little as a couple hours. A huge network of trails worldwide means unlimited options in all directions and the internet makes all this information

accessible. But let’s not forget that the best tips always come from locals and other people on the trail. We would have missed the best seafood, caught by local fisherman, had we not listened to the nice guy we met on the trail in Corsica last week.

And suddenly you find yourself on the side of a busy road in the middle of China’s Sichuan Province. From a mountaineer on a seven day trek high up in the mountains you suddenly became a traveler with way too much stuff.

BACH offers solutions for all sorts and kinds, usually with three things in common: Comfortable to use and to carry, robust in design and choice of materials and nothing attached that you don’t need.

Where this transition between trekking, hiking and traveling takes place is not important. What matters is how you move yourself and your stuff from A to B.

Micro Adventures and Urban Outdoor are just two of many names you find all over social media these days. And it is pretty cool to look for something new closer to home instead of spending hours in an airplane to gather likes and kudos. Going outside is something we should all do a little more often. At BACH traditionally we are outdoor minded but we realize that you cannot have a huge outdoor

adventure every night or weekend. We also recognize that our equipment gets beaten up especially in the city during everyday life. This is why we came up with some products for urban use that carry the spirit of BACH. They are comfortable to use, last longer than others and we think they look pretty good. Last but least, we use them outside the city too ;)
