Default Rucksack

I'm looking to get a new rucksack to use on my bike for going back and forward to uni. Needs to be of reasonable size. I've just been using a 'normal' rucksack and I'm now thinking if getting a bike specific one. I've been looking at alpinestars vector 2 and various Kriega, though only online. Does anyone have any experience of the above or recommendations on alternatives. Are the Kriega ones worth the money?

Thanks

Kriega ones are definitely worth the money

I have the R25 which is brilliant, you can hardly feel you're wearing it when it's on, it's got loads of space and different pockets and it's completely waterproof.

I don't know how hard-wearing it will be over time but 6 months of almost daily use and mine still looks brand new.

Plus it's expandable with the extra 5 / 10 litre add-on packs.

Get one, expensive but you won't regret it - I use to use a cheap back pack and got shoulder and neck ache all the time but I don't get it at all now

Cheers,
Matt

Thanks for the advice. Bought one today, here's hoping it does me well. With a 10 year warranty I thought I can't go wrong!
