What backpack are you rocking?

Forum Sponsor
Mach 5 all day. I hate backpacks and I find it comfy. If I'm going far I'll use a tail back and then strap the backpack to the top of it. The aero part is definitely nice
 
Been using a regular backpack for now but i've been shopping for one the past couple of weeks.
I really liked the icon squad 3, ...until i saw it in person and realized how damn small it is.
My buddy has a Kriega 20. It seems nice.
 
Using the Ogio NoDrag Mach 5 too. Great bag, extremely happy with my purchase. Pretty light weight, you have to organize well like people have been saying, but it looks damn sexy and the visor compartment was a nice touch.
 
I use a 20+ year old MEC backpack. No zippers so they never come undone and holds a ton of stuff.
 
Another happy camper here using the Ogio Mach 5.



I like to commute to work in the nice weather and my driving shoes go into the shoe holders and my extra shield goes into the shield sleeve (I ride in the bright sun to work and typically commute home closer to midnight so I swap the clear shield on). The bag works perfect for commuting.




One of the most useful and best purchases I have made so far. :)
 
I have a TUMI backpack that I've been using the for the last 2-3 years. Enough room to carry my laptop, shoes, hat, etc...
It's Ducati branded so I assume they designed it with motorcycles in mind. Can barely feel it on when I'm riding.

spend some extra bucks and put a top case on the back. on the plus side, your passengers will feel more relaxed and safer having something resembling a back rest. :)
 
Ogio Mach 5 here. Use it daily and wouldn't hesitate to spend the money on another one.

My only complaint about it is that the visor sleeve isn't removable (without resorting to a knife). I never carry an extra visor so the sleeve just takes up space.

I have an ICON Squad II and Ive removed the crazy arm wraps.

I figure that it brings an aspect of high vis/reflective protection, can expand to carry a helmet, has a laptop compartment, is durable as hell. Its been great. Very well built.

This but in black for me
 
+1 on Kriega.

I have a R25 and loaded with laptop and stuff I don't feel the weight at all, it's distributed nicely and is easy to manipulate with your gloves on. Also you can hack a GoPro chest mount by using the square that comes with it (top of the box) and it slides right in between the two chest straps comfortably.

It's water resistant but not waterproof.I think the R40/50 (i forget the exact model) is though.

Was looking at that one but decided to go with this:

Was also looking for hi viz for commuting.
 
Kriega R25. Rode with it fully loaded to Texas and it wasn't too much of a pain . Also have the 5, 10, and 20. GP Bikes and Oakville Yamaha sell them.

I have an Ogio and the Kriega R20. Both are excellent, but I prefer the Kriega - in part due to the fact that it looks a bit more "casual" when you are lugging it around off the bike. The Ogio works great, but in my opinion it kind of looks like a big turtle shell lol.
 
I just use an Eddie Bauer 30L backpack. I figured if it works for long hikes then it will work with normal commuting on the bike. Tank bag for long trips.
