Summary
This bag goes into my top-ten best purchases of all-time.
Pros
- Multiple uses
- Customizable
- Comfortable
Cons
- Small Storage Space
I've used this for so many different activities. It's originally designed for biking, but I've also used it as a day pack and as a travel bag.
The storage space is quite small, but with all its clips and pockets and some good planning, you can customize it for multiple different uses. I've even been able to fit enough in (and around) it to hike up a 4,000-meter mountain!
I also take this whenever I travel abroad. With its many interior pockets and secure straps, it's a safe, non-bulky alternative to a purse in which I can have everything I need close to me—passport/cards, money, phone, map, food/water.
I've gotten so much use out of this little bag, I rate this as one of the top-ten best purchases I've ever made.
