Okay product
By Matthew Carter
I'm a big fan of Osprey packs, but this isn't one of their best designs. The pack has a ton of bike specific features, which is nice, but Osprey lost sight of the big picture. A commuter pack needs to get you to work, without making your back sweat through your clothes. Osprey makes packs that are designed to keep your back from getting sweaty, but this isn't one of them. The pack has a huge contact surface with your back, and makes your back sweat like crazy.Also know that these are very large packs in comparison to models from other manufacturers of similar capacity. Osprey put a ton of cushion in these packs, to protect the laptop and other items. To achieve the proper capacity size, they had to greatly increase the physical size.But the commuter specific features are well done, and the shoulder straps are very comfortable. Awesome guarantee as well.

For the dedicated commuter
By yippinyahoo
Now this is one well-thought-out design. The 26L model has an abundance of useable space without feeling like too much...I can't imagine why anyone would need a 34L model. But anyway, I use this pack every day to haul a full business-casual outfit to/from work, plus a bag lunch, the occasional file folder, iPad and/or laptop (15"), and all my sundries. There is still room for more if you need it, but if you don't this pack holds whatever you throw at it without slop or shifting around on your back. I love all the details...zip-up pack expander, the retractable key-chain holder inside the right shoulder strap, the cell-phone holder on the left (which fits a large-screen smartphone), the small mesh opening at the bottom in case of a spill or unanticipated rain shower, a bomb-proof built-in rain-fly which keeps everything perfectly dry (including riveted drain opening at the bottom in case water should find its way in...which mine hasn't despite several hard rains), dog whistle designed into the sternum strap...and on and on. The straps are comfortable but the slight bulk of the strap-pockets takes some getting used to. It feels a little like wearing a life preserver. This pack lays flat on your back, and will pick up sweat. You will not arrive at your destination with a sweat-free back, so just be aware. The color is a bright but not garish mustard-yellow with reflective accents front & rear, including the rain-fly. Internal pockets store everything, including an integrated U-lock sleeve. The outermost compartment is soft-lined for scratch-susceptible items. Mesh pockets on the side lay flat, but can easily hold a water bottle each if needed. One small beef: the cinch straps at the bottom (which overlay the mesh side pockets) flap freely in the breeze. All other straps have clips on them to prevent this...I've simply tucked the cinch straps into the mesh pockets. The helmet clip has adjustable tension to hold that onto the pack securely, and all the straps (shoulder + belt) fold into the pack for toting around the airport, made easy with the integrated side luggage handle. The zipper pulls are another great detail that makes everything so easy to operate. I mean wow...what a pack. It may be overkill for the casual commuter, but if you ride day in & day out in all weather (because you don't have a 2nd car and don't want one), this is the answer

I LOVE IT!!!
By reaksmey
Ok. I'm an avid Amazon shopper (who isn't?), and never have I look forward to writing a review for any product ( I usually don't even write one). But I need give this backpack all the credit that it deserves.A little about myself: I commute via bicycle everyday and I live in a city. I've gone through a few backpacks and have yet to find one that I absolutely loved. Some are too bulky even with minimal items in the bag, some looks tough enough but it would fall apart, and some are just too small for anything.I did a lot of research, and here were my requirements: Spacious enough but doesn't compromise the size of the bag; strap pockets for keys, phone, waller, etc., a helmet holder, rain cover, and side pockets for when I want to stash water bottle or something easily while riding. If those things are what you're looking for, then just add this backpack to your basket and pay because you will get all of that AND MORE!One of my favorite features of this backpack is the key zip-string-thing in the key pocket , and if I could give out an award to the best idea ever I would. I misplace my keys all the time and this key string works flawlessly. It's the little things.My U-Lock fits perfect inside of one of the side pockets. I"ve yet to use the rain cover and I can't wait for that. The headlight reflectors are great for when you get your bike light stolen.I got the black one because I intend to have this backpack for a very long time, and I feel the bamboo colored one would show too much stains in the long run. That's just me though. I also got the 24 liter one because I have a small frame and I want something that I can walk around the city/go to work with comfortably like a regular backpack. The 34 liter one would work well for a guy, in my opinion, or someone who likes to carry a lot of stuff while commuting.I plan on using this backpack as my daily backpack regardless if I'm riding or not, so to have a padded computer sleeve for your computer or tablet is pretty sweet.Last but not least, yes the price may be a little steep, but this backpack is build to last. It's has a lifetime guarantee. I'm a huge Osprey person, and I also own one of their packs for a few years now, which I used to do my bike trip in Europe. I'd rather pay a little more for something that looks and feel great, but above all, something that can keep up with my adventures and life style.Did I mention this backpack is AWESOME? Get it!!!I hope this review helps. I apologize for my grammar but you get the idea :)
