Last November SHAD showed us many of the new features with which it would start 2024 at the famous EICMA in Milan. Among them these innovative side cases, the SH38X Expandablewhich as their name indicates are capable of expanding laterally to achieve a considerable increase in capacity.
Now, a few months later, the Barcelona brand definitively launches these new suitcases on the market, becoming ideal equipment for any motorcycle user who values having extra carrying capacity (up to a helmet) at a given time.
It is also ideal for all those motorcyclists who want to reduce the width of their motorcycle with the suitcase installed, and thus improve safety when traveling and agility when driving.
SHAD SH38X Expandable suitcases in detail
Engineering and design, two hallmarks of SHADcome together in the SH38X Expandable to create a set of luggage that stands out for its expandable mechanism, based on a concept from architecture: the tensegrity.
It is an innovative mechanical system with compensated tension, which allows the suitcase to be expanded and contracted telescopically, in a matter of seconds and uniformly. This technology has been adapted to the needs of the motorcycle world, to create a concept unprecedented to date, which the brand has named “dynamic tensegrity”.
Through this system, The SH38X expands by 70 mm, increasing its volume by 40%, allowing you to store an XL ECE 22.06 modular helmet inside. This makes them the most compact cases for a modular helmet on the market. Furthermore, the suitcase It is compatible with the 3P and 4P System lateral fixing systems, as well as with more than 200 motorcycle models on the market.
Likewise, its closing system “Double Locking System” It serves to lock it on the fixing and, at the same time, prevent access to its interior. This system converts the new SH38X Expandable a safe alternative for all types of journeys.
These come in an aluminum finish that, together with the trunk SH59X, allows the most demanding motorists to have a set of Expandable trunk and side cases. In addition, they are also available in their carbon version, matching the SH58X Expandable trunk.
At the accessory level, two interior networks with a double function are included. On the one hand, secure the objects inside so that they do not fall and, on the other hand, store small objects or documentation. Finally, an extra cylinder is included, to be able to unify the closure if you have a trunk and thus be able to do it with a single key.
As options, an expandable inner bag, adapters for 4P fixings, and colored covers are offered to personalize the cases depending on the color of the motorcycle. For more information about the new SH38X Expandableyou can directly consult the official SHAD website.
