Our customers say…
Customers generally find the rucksack to be well-constructed, durable, and ideal for biking, with a solid waterproof main compartment. While many praise the comfort, sturdy material, and excellent weight distribution, there are some concerns about the lack of inner pockets and the inconvenience of the strap system. Some reviews mentioned that outer pockets are not waterproof, and the bag is considered pricey. Despite its cost, customers believe the quality and features justify the investment.

I've had several cheap bags over the years and they never really last but I was dubious about spending this kind of money on a bag however I'm very glad I did very good construction very comfortable highly recommended

Top quality bag!
27 September 2024 by Robert M
Bought it for long weekend trip to Belgium and France on my super naked. Didn't want to go panniers or top box way. I was not disappointed at all. Did 900 miles in various conditions including being caught in a torrential rain for 3 hours on day 1. Content of main compartment stayed bone dry throughout the journey. Contents of Two outer pockets also remained mostly dry although not advertised as waterproof. As far as comfort I was also pleasantly surprised. Didn't weigh the backpack before setting out but it was quite weighty with enough stuff for 3 nights. I did not feel the pressure on my shoulders at all thanks to the unique quad lock system used by Kriega. Additionally I purchased Kriega pouch that goes on either strap to have easy access to my phone and wallet. This also worked very well but made a mistake of keeping my passport in the pouch during the downpour and it did get wet. Mind you - pouch is not advertised as waterproof so totally my fault. Otherwise pouch really helped me with easy access to my wallet when stopping to pay for tolls or fuel in France. Overall I'm very happy with both R30 backpack and a pouch from Kriega. Now I know I can travel/ tour on my super naked! Thank you SBS and thank you Kriega.

Excellent bag
05 September 2024 by Pete H
One of the great features of this bag is that compresses down to quite a manageable size when you dont need the full capacity. When you do fill it, its pretty big, but not overly so.

The outer pockets, especially the bottom one, hold a lot and the main compartment holds a decent amount too; you just need to allow enough space at the top for the roll-top to close down.

One thing to bear in mind is that in the product description it says you can use the attachment loops to attach US-5 or US10 drypacks to the bag - this was only on the older model; you cannot do this on this new model; there are no attachment loops (I double-checked with Kriega on this one).

Great bag overall and the load-bearing strap system is excellent

Comfortable Back Pack

Fits comfortably plenty of adjustment very well made. Dropped 1 star due to relatively high price.

Not waterproof as expected, only the main pocket is that and the two front pockets will take in water.

Solid backpack
09 June 2022 by Felix T
Very good back pack for use on a motorbike. I've been using it for commuting to work with a fairly hefty laptop (38 x 25 cm) some work cloths and a litelock moto in the main compartment. there's even room for some bits and pieces from the shop.
The straps do a good job of distributing the weight of the pack, it doesn't feel like it weighs me down when riding.
If I have any criticisms it's that the main compartment is only a single space, and the strap system is difficult to adjust, but these are pretty insignificant compared to the tough quality of the backpack and the 10 year warranty

Great rucksack but overpriced
01 June 2022 by Stephen B
No doubt it is a quality rucksack. It definitely could do with some inside pockets. Have to mark it down on the lack of separation on the waterproof main storage area. It is very robust and should take allot of abuse but then your paying for it in abundance. I am going to recommend this as it should last the distance

Excellent Rucksack 30Ltr

I used the rucksack almost immediately in the pouring rain and everything remained as dry as it went in when originally packed.
I love the side-straps and how easy they make the fit to your body perfect. 10 put of 10 from me.

Great bag that lives up to the hype
05 June 2021 by Anonymous
I have tried a few bags on my bike, prior to this bag I had a mil Tec military bag which was great except for the not being waterproof. After having to dry things inside too many times I decided to go for this one. After torrential rain I can confirm the contents were dry. Also the quad lock system is great bag is in an ideal position for riding. If you commute by bike all year round I 100% recommend.

Disappointing - often soaks up water.
30 May 2021 by J B
I've had this backpack for a month or so now. It's quite good. It seems very durable, bla bla... I honestly feel it's to expensive. The main issue is the outer bag is not waterproof but the inner liner is. It's happened twice where it's been so wet that the bag is still sodden the next day. I was expecting better when it arrived.

Surprised
30 August 2020 by Mark L
I bike to the station everyday with a rucksack containing a laptop, drink etc.
A la Clarkson we start with a the downsides;
Very heavy empty, probably due to the robust material and construction. Not a huge main compartment once you get the laptop + charger etc in. You need to think about the location placement of items because it takes a minute or two to get said main compartment by undoing 3 clips and unroling the top. Doesn't sit very comfortably on your back when not on a bike. I'm 5'9" and find the pack is low on my back with everything tightened as much as possible.
Excellent points;
Waterproof as stated. The back insert pocket means you don't need one under or in your jacket which I find to be a massive plus. (And possibly why there is less room in the main compartment, but worth it).
Lower back placement of pack when on a bike is excellant and lowers the centre of gravity making life savers easier to perform. 2 Buckle harness connectors a huge improvemnt on traditional rucksack clips.
Taken togethor, I would recommend this bag to anyone. Very pleased with the purchase.

Everyday commuting gold!

Build quality is excellent, the main compartment is watertight and large enough for laptops, clothes etc. The material is tough and looks like it will last well. Straps are large and easy to get on over leathers. The quadlock system holds the backpack in place perfectly! Can recommend!

THE Best Back Pack
27 July 2020 by Anonymous
Was advised to check Kriega out when looking for a waterproof biking back pack. Not disappointed, great piece of kit, I literally forget I have it on when riding. Loads of space. I did buy the additional Harness Pocket but to be honest its actually too small to fit a new smartphone in or a wallet, ok for change, notes and cards only, probably should of got the XL version. Buy the Pack though!

All good so far
15 July 2020 by Mark
Used once (so far) on a longish trip into France. Roomy and reasonably comfortable to wear. Construction appears sturdy and long wearing. Concur with others that the price is steep, but if it lasts, it should be worth it in the end.
