I also have an Army issue Bergen, 130L in olive green. I only ever use it when I can't fit the load in my other two rucksacks another military 35L day sack or a quicksilver backpack.

I use a nice "Dakine" rucksack, cost me £35, holds plenty, is comfy, and a has that centre strap that keeps it on :)


Whats great, is its waterproof, and they offer a lifetime guaruntee/warranty - if anything on it breaks, zips, straps, any tears or anything, they give u a brand new one xD I love mine. Served me well for years, and boy have i shoved some crap in that!

I use my old school bag, has a broken zip and i think got a small hole in it :lol: Has no straps to link together or anything :lol:


Lets say its held my wallet, phone etc and all have survived, well quite rapid speeds!


Doesn't hold alot though!


EDIT: also survived when i came off back in November too! :P

i never wear one.....whatever is in the rucksack is going to be tumbling down the road with you should you have an off!

I have an issue Bergan, but find that the frame pushes my lid up from the back, so its just taking up space on top of a fridge...

dont use one, topbox, panniers, tailpack and tankbag is enough for me :shock:

Flog it!! There's always a daft civi that'll pay silly money for ex-army gear, even if it's falling to bits!! The amount of shite I sold when I was in QM's was amazing!! :spank:

you might be able to use webbing then? aslong as what ever it is that your carrying is not very big.


you can get it in black too http://www.soldierstuff.co.uk/product_i ... tqurvzutad

 

That wont look silly at all.... Honest!!


PS. See what I mean WF? (see link) £85 for that shite!!

that is true, i wouldnt buy any army stuff myself, mainly because my brother will give it me for free :lol: and because its too expensive for somthing a civilian version will do for a quater the price.
