Rucksacks...any recommendations?
 

I'm looking at getting a better rucksack than the one I have at the moment...can anyone recommend one?

(For the rideout) :wink:

Knox aero backpack. There's a review in the clothing section.

i'm being cheap and looking on ebay, just can't decide on the right size

Yep, I had a look at the Knox at HG in maidstone this afternoon but it seems a tad small... I like the look of the oxford humpback rucksack but I can't be ars*d to pay £80 for it? Just call me cheap :!: :wink:
I'm also looking at the humpback tankbag at the moment and there seems to be quite a few of them on ebay. :roll:

I have an Alpine Lowe "Alpine Attack 20", which is on the smaller side but a typical Friday's contents include:

• Laptop
  PSU for laptop
  A4 Folio
  Hard glasses case
  PDA
  Jeans
  Tee Shirt
  Trainers
  Spare Visor
  Bike Magazine

Not bad, and that's without expanding it :shock:

It's water resistand, comfortable and relatively small. Wasn't cheap at £50 but with ruck sacks, quality shows. Good ones are comfortable and the straps are easy to do up and release. Cheap ones are a pain, I know, I've bought enough of them in the past....

I also have a HG ruck sack (the one with the bit that extends to take your lid and has a pack away rain cover) which is bigger and just as comfortable, hust a bit too big for every day use..

Hi there,

Girlfriend bought me an Alpinestars Bag from the NEC bike show last year.
This bag is great, it will hold a helmet and has several neat pockets.

It even has room to put a personal stereo or MP3 Player and has a specified rubber grommit to allow the head phones out of.

Can't remember the model but I'll keep an eye out and post again when I find it.

what about a roll bag from hein gericke there only £15.00 just bungee it to your pillion seat

Naah, I've already got a "first time" tailpack that I bought from HG for a tenner last year so I'm looking at additional space for the tent and sleeping bag and stuff for the ride-out.

I got an Oxford one. Very good.

I have just bought a Kriega R35. It ain't cheap at £95 but its real quality kit. I had a Berghaus 25 litre rucksack before this, but it beats it hands down. The quadloc fastening is a great system.
