Solid bag for the daily commute
15 September 2024 by Luke
A substantial feeling bag, the main compartment is a large dry bag so don't need to worry about the rain.
Great for my daily commute which takes about 1hr, doesn't cause me any discomfort and I feel streamlined even at motorway speeds. I am able to pack a change of clothes, pair of shoes, towel, toiletries, laptop, plus a 12mm chain and disk locks with relative ease. I would recommend getting the additional harness pocket accessory you can have easy access to phone/wallet without taking the bag off.
Overall its very expensive but with the 10yr warranty hopefully it will last well.

Comfortable & Sturdy Backpack
11 August 2024 by Elliot B
Durable backpack now with the upgraded waterproof inner compartment I can have confidence my belongings will be safe. I took off one star because after a certain weight you do notice the pressure on your chest, for instance if I pack one bag of food shopping. But this is perfect for a spare set of clothes, water bottle, and a laptop you won't notice a thing.
