Perfect for essentials

02 September 2020 by Peter R

The rucksack has plenty of pockets, so easy to organise the essentials. It is a very compact rucksack so good on a sports bike and I can just squeeze my lightweight one piece waterproof in this, phone wallet and house keys .

Good

A good secure rucksack. Good pockets can fit a fair amount inside it. Would be 5 but could be a tad bigger.

This rucksack is made well but too small for any daily commuter. Its more like a kiddies rucksack. At a very tight squeeze it just manages a Jumper and a small lunch box. Because of this I can't even stop to get milk and bread on way home. I would not recommend it.

Small rucksack for small to medium size people

19 February 2020 by Stephen W

It wasn't expensive but if you have a chest size like me of 52" and a waist of 44", you won't get the lower strap around you when worn over your motorcycle clothing.
It all works, and is fine for what it cost. Lots of pockets and an integral waterproof cover.

Awesome little bag!

25 December 2019 by Anonymous

There's a reason this bag has been reviewed so well, so many times! If you want a massive bag that carries everything you need, look elsewhere! But if you're looking for a small compact bag that carries the essentials for short commutes to work or little journeys with friends, this is a great little bag at an awesome price! Chest straps keep the bag firmly in place so it doesn't slide around on your back! Haven't tried the waterproof cover so cant comment on that. Thanks again SBS for great service!

Got it in the bag.

I just needed something to carry odds and ends in whilst out riding my motorcycle and this is just the job, it securely fastens with to straps around the waist and your chest keeping the shoulder straps in place at high speed.

Perfect size

Great for short journeys and easily adjusted for either of us to wear. Sportsbike were brilliant and immediately replaced the first one I ordered as it was missing the waterproof cover.

Nice micro bag

31 July 2019 by David H

Great size for a short commute or trip, holds quite a bit, comfy to wear and the straps are big enough to wear over a 48" inch jacket. Decent quality too.

Nice backpack, lightweight with plenty of pockets. Not as rugged as a Kriega, but significantly cheaper.

Handy rucksack for modest requirements

10 May 2019 by Ian A

This is a feature-packed little rucksack that is fine for short trips, commuting and the like. It has three compartments and a drawstring holder on the outside. This holder is fine apart from not having a base to it, so unless you hook items into the webbing, they may well drop out.

The compartments have a surprising variety of handy pockets, key attachment, etc. I'm the kind of bloke who thinks, That looks really useful -- then spends the next half hour wondering what exactly I might use the feature for. So if you're not like me, you'll be fine.

The straps are not as well padded as I would like, they're a bit on the flimsy side and when the bag is full it doesn't sit as comfortably as I would like, even with the chest strap. The other gripe I have is that it is 200mm wide, which is great unless you want to carry A4 documents (210mm wide). I normally carry clothes and books, so it didn't put me off buying it, but others might think twice if they have to carry documents regularly.

Perfect for short distance

If I have a daily trip idea, then this rucksack the best choice. Perfectly fit my back (maybe because, I am only 5.7), but i got enough space to fit everything in this backpack.

Good rucksack although the straps could do with being a little longer as I find it a bit tight going over a winter jacket with liner. Probably be better with a summer jacket.
