What Rucksack?

[Toby_Smith]

Well I've been using a crappy old vans rucksack when I need to ride somewhere and take a change of clothes etc.

It's not great and not too comfortable.

What rucksacks can you guys recommend for bike use? I was looking at the Oxford Aeropack ones and they seem decent yet reasonable in price.

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers guys

KNOX do a good one, so do Kriega, both very good.

I can vouch for the Kriega R25, top quality (it's been drenched several times and nothing's got through) and very comfy. Bit pricey though.

Knox 6-packs get a good write-up too.

I use the Kriega R25 and think it's brilliant. Very comfy, however it could do to have a little more space inside.

I use a Kriega R35 which is brilliant - big enough for a 17" Laptop and very comfy...bit pricey though!

Knox 6-Pack is what I use although my mate who is experienced at touring says he doesn't like it as it has no padding on the straps on the shoulders. Other than that it's ace!

I prefer not to use a back pack at all if I can help it. I've just bought a Bagster tank bag which I much prefer. Call me fussy but I don't like the idea of my back being twisted all different ways in the event of an off with a bag on! If I'm using a tank bag then it's just me rolling down the road with nothing attached to bend me out of shape!
