The New Giant Loop Armadillo Bag: Flexible, Collapsible, Lightweight Liquid Storage and Transport

[@fredbirmingham172]

For anyone interested, I found a Garage Boss Press 'N Pour Fuel Container Spout fits the bag for regulating the gas input. It's the first one I found that fit perfectly with no gas seeping out at the nozzle connection.

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Great tip!

[@unclebadger597]

Wow! That torture test was impressive!

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Andy doesn't mess around.

[@madmaxthemotomutt6464]

That’s cool you got dork in the road to make the video! Awesome guys!!

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Fortunately he works for whiskey and cigars. ;)

[@hydraulikz]

OMG I buying one instantly. I've bought those rotopax knockoffs and found themt too thick to mount. I was this close to just biting the bullet and just getting a rotopax. This design suits my needs so much better!

[@GiantLoopMoto]

You'll be very happy with it, I'm sure. 😉

[@DavidM2002]

Mine just arrived in the mail. Great quality and a great price. See America, you can make top quality products at fair prices. Well done.

[@larrybellucci4708]

Would rather not travel with more than a gallon. However, if I get the 2 gallon bag in case I sometimes need more, will it pack well only half full? Thanks

[@spacecruisers]

Wondering the same thing!

[@reallifehardtruth4465]

Yup. 2gallon bag with 1 gallon works fine

[@thomasemberson8021]

150 miles in a bag! Frigeen awesome, based on a 3G bladder and the 50mpg my SuperTenere can get if I ride responsibly. Exact solution I've been looking for. Took my '10 KLR650 to AK, and the only time I needed the 2G JerryCan was in the lower 48, but,s still needed the extra gallon. Looking for a video of filling and empying the 3G and 5G into motorcycle!

[@Hdmotos]

How will be storage? Empty roll and storage? Or News ro hace water or something inside?

[@zealotbat]

Freaking cool...buying one today 👍🏻👍🏻

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Awesome!

[@F1.0]

Hello I want to know which size bag is on the bike at 0:15 in video (with orange Mojavi bag)

[@stevethomas9848]

What is the simplest rack /attachment system for these? Ktm 500

[@richjones859]

Just got my 1 gallon bag, great product, what is the recommended max time period for storing gas In it?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

We don't recommend more than a week. It's intended as a transport solution, rather than a storage one. The gas will be fine but you may notice a smell which is normal and doesn't mean the bag isn't working.

[@ADVzac]

Thanks Ben I followed that link you sent me that bag looks really tough.

[@GiantLoopMoto]

They work really well. I love mine.

[@aal9207]

Great idea 💡

[@GiantLoopMoto]

👍😁

[@gzahnd]

We’re all winking when bro says “automotive fluids” right? We know these are gas bags, right? :-)

[@guyincognito1431]

I have no idea what you mean. I only haul "water". I'm on year 3 of the "water" not causing any issues and I like that it doesn't scratch the heck out of my tunnel like a "water" filled jerry can used to do.

[@yetiboy01australia23]

Good looking bags, Whats the internal bladder made from, is it made from the very tuff 1.2mm 1200GSM tpu like the Aussie fuel bag manufactures use?

[@brantmcfarland517]

I need that for one of my bikes. lol

[@jf7393]

I wish it said on your website that this container is not recommended for potable water storage.

[@GiantLoopMoto]

It won't hurt you. It just won't taste very good. The bag is designed for fuel.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

I use it for both. Since gas sits on top of the water, I just pour gas in my tank, then drink the rest.

[@jimfeldman4035]

hint: get your lighting a bit higher

[@jessehskelton]

Wonder if I could use this for a boat and just hook up a fuel line

[@bernardomotard]

Unbelievably dumb idea. Just use the proper engine hose and fuel reservoir

[@DarrylZubot]

Awesome bag! Is it possible to add an outlet to hook up to a fuel line so you can pump the fuel into the tank, I have turtlepac bags for my aircraft but they are rigid and don't go down that small.

[@GiantLoopMoto]

They're not designed for that purpose but maybe with some clever engineering?

[@DarrylZubot]

@@GiantLoopMoto I sent you guys an email. I think you could be hitting a nice market with amateur/experimental aircraft owners.

[@raybrensike42]

The only way I could see that work is if you fitted a quick disconnect fuel line to the cap that went into the vent line of the fuel tank, and it would have to suck fuel from the bag as the fuel went down in the tank.I think that might work as the bag would simply collapse and would need no venting.

[@rockyrode]

When full, does the 1 gallon fit in both sides of the Mojave saddlebags?

[@Trailfocused]

You can fit .9 gallons inside the Armadillo bag, inside the side pockets of the Mojavi..

[@GiantLoopMoto]

@@Trailfocused Ryan knows what he's talking about. That's awesome!

[@r.g.carter3908]

those look great, but are a little pricey for a gas can

[@ChrisBaker-k4i]

Is the 2 gallon bag available again?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

yes

[@upatreepete]

What length pronghorn straps should be used for the 1 gal bag? 25”

[@GiantLoopMoto]

I use the 32" just because it's better to have too much strap than not enough, and it gives you the option to add additional stuff on top if you need to.

[@moorepower13]

Can you use it for water?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Technically yes, but we don't recommend it for potable water. It may give the water a nasty taste.

[@ZildjianMan30]

@@GiantLoopMoto Please do this exact type of bag (different inside material) for potable water. I like to transport by the gallon, rather than multiple 2 or 3 liter bags from Camelbaks. 1 gallon per day!

[@GiantLoopMoto]

@@ZildjianMan30 Can't say anything right now but keep your eyes open for future product announcements...

[@daftnord4957]

if these are not intended for fuel storage in the USA, can i use it for drinking water? Thats what i want one of these for anyway lol, but i don't see anyone talking about using them for water

[@GiantLoopMoto]

It's not recommended to use for drinking water because it's not made of food-grade materials and will potentially cause your water to be less than delicious. Fortunately we have a new product coming out that addresses this exact need and you can preorder now to get 30% off: www.giantloopmoto.com/product/cactus-canteen/

[@omicrondec]

15% inflation on the 1 gal Armadillo within a year-and-a-half. I like this design so much more than the Rotopax.

[@44bgood]

How do you recommend cleaning it for storage? Or, If i want to carry gasoline on one trip, and diesel on the next?

[@spacecruisers]

Wondering this as well. I want one but am concerned with smells and vapors, especially from the spout, after using it.

[@CarlosThomas]

What is the difference between Get 1 and Get 2 other than the spout storage? More directly, can you sell me on why someone who already owns your Gen 1 would purchase the Gen 2?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Included spout, spout pouch, lower price, different color and some internal changes, but functionally it's otherwise not a lot different from the one you already have. If those extra features seem worth an upgrade, that's awesome, but there's nothing wrong with just continuing to use the bag you have until you need a new one or want to pick up a second bag in a different size.

[@captslaq]

Is this a replacement for the GasBag?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

It's an evolution of the original Gas Bag, which will no longer be available

[@baldknobby]

The 1gal is not $99 anymore. It's $125

[@qualifierone8899]

What straps are these?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

[@jarrodkurr4718]

Will these safely handle E85?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Yes, but not recommended for long term storage.

[@chrisatloafercreek4364]

All that video and you dont pour and gas out of it?

[@wes3029]

Not one example of it actually being opened up and filling a motorbike.. ?

[@moulin680]

Expensive, but once you in a bind out of gas, you would give anyone $100 to help you out…. Not counting wasted time…

[@timothyleavitt05]

You did everything but show us how to use it.

[@hughjorgan9328]

If you don't know how to use a gas can/bag than you won't be riding far anyway

[@SandMountainOff-road]

@@hughjorgan9328 False

[@brianwest5348]

Way overpriced!

[@joecalabro4633]

Way too expensive

[@GiantLoopMoto]

If there's a similar non-rigid automotive fluid reservoir out there for cheaper, we've never seen it.

[@moto5914]

Sure beats walking. If you buy an $11k motorcycle and spend thousands in upgrades, what’s a $100 investment in a high quality rugged product to extend range? GL products could all be labeled as expensive, but I have multiple GL products and they are all worth it.

[@ZildjianMan30]

Leaving your bike on the side of the road or trail, unattended, can be a lot more expensive. Either a methhead or Sasquatch will steal your bike.

[@ricardollamas1605]

Or worse, a sasquatch on meth!

[@boyfester]

If using for a Jeep or truck, can you have these filled and inside the vehicle or do they need to be outside (roof rack, rear bumper, etc)?

[@GiantLoopMoto]

Recommend keeping them outside where possible, just because there can be a slight fuel odor.
