The Desert Fox 5000 is a fuel bag that can hold 5 litres (1.32 gallons) of fuel, and be strapped to your bike for use by either off road riders, or those who have fuel-tank-reserve-stretching gaps between gas stations.
Each Desert Fox has an industrial strength plastic bladder, with a thick canvas outer shell. There is a nozzle that can be tucked away for refilling the tank, and it has plenty of straps and D-rings to keep it secure. When not in use the Desert Fox can be rolled up for easy storage – and it’s possible to use them for water storage if you’ve never previously filled it with fuel.
