The ELEPHANT is and remains the clever travel companion for BMW riders

The new ELEPHANT gleams with its sleek design, sustainable fabrics, efficient manufacturing processes and further optimized functionality and versatility. The primary compartment of the tank bag, made of CORDURA® TrueLock™, is easily adjustable in size to suit individual needs. The shape-stabilizing insert reliably protects the contents and prevents any bulging or flapping at high speeds. In addition, two side pockets provide further storage space, which is easily accessible from the seat. The interior, blue case also ensures clarity. The ELEPHANT offers a retention system for additional pockets designed after the military Molle system and is complemented by a practical, elastic luggage net. The zippers are water-resistant and fitted with ergonomically shaped, easy-grip zippers. Not to mention, you do not have to miss out on the water-resistant cable grommet for an electrical supply, smartphone charging cable, or the prepared holder pocket for the matching organizer (Item-No.: 20680-000). The other practical feature is the carrying harness that transforms the tank bag into a shoulder bag or a conventional backpack for usage beyond the bike.

The result of this evolution is a tank bag that is convincing in every respect and has been consistently developed with effectiveness and sustainability in mind.

Wunderlich offers the ELEPHANT for 199.90 €*, and a 5-year warranty is obligatory for the BMW accessory specialists‘ own products anyway. In addition, there is the model-specific mounting system.

Wunderlich BLAU – The new ELEPHANT is a prime example of how Wunderlich identifies sustainability issues and then implements them consistently throughout the entire organization.

The novel CORDURA® TrueLock™-fabric, which is used for the first time for the tank bag, consists of high-strength nylon 6.6 multi-filament nylon fibers produced through an extrusion process. In this continuous process, the added color is essentially „locked“ into the fiber and firmly bound. This eliminates the need for downstream, strenuous dyeing and washing processes. The process developed by CORDURA® inventor INVISTA to produce CORDURA® TrueLock™ thus conserves resources by reducing the use of water and energy. Simultaneously, it reduces CO2 emissions, increases durability, service life, and durable properties. The new fabric is further optimized and includes excellent color stability, color vibrancy and UV stability. Fading and abrasion resistance have also been further improved with the product.

Wunderlich has dispensed the plastic packaging and supplies the ELEPHANT in a matching, waterproof, and versatile Wunderlich luggage bag (44000-xxx). The cost of the bag is covered by Wunderlich. The pack sack can be used on exciting trips in the future while also preserving the environment.

Wunderlich BLAU is our corporate initiative to strengthen sustainability. Using this method, BMW specialists succeed in reducing the ecological footprint while fundamentally improving quality and functionality.
