Cool Back Packs...  Dunno where to get em yet

DID ANYONE EVER RECALL A BIKE BEING FOR RIDING NOT FOR HAULING YOUR CRAP WHILE YOUR MOVING FROM ONE HOUSE TO ANOTHER, IF YOU CANT PUT IT IN YOUR SEAT OR IN YOUR POCKETS, WHY CARRY IT WHILE RIDING. THATS WHAT PEOPLE HAVE CARS FOR LOADING STUFF

did anyone ever learn not to type in all capitals?

I see true ignorance on this board only on rare occasions.




This is one of those occasions.

Rev - Just a thought... if you ride with your rear seat hump installed, I wonder if these hard backpacks would rub against it when seated upright at red lights, etc.?

Ahh good question ... I use that backpack occasionally and when I sit upright there is barely a few inches of clearance ... so yes that is a consideration for a shorter person and how high or low you have the backpack strapped to your back.

hmm....interesting. I can see myself using one. I wonder if that'll save me some skin if I ever go down.

ot-ot-ah we dont say the "D" word

Yeah that would be a serious concern. I dunno about the Axio bag, it might clear without problem, but yeah the other might be too long.

If I have to carry stuff (Like riding to work) I prefer a backpack to a Tank bag. I just cannot trust any tank bag NOT to scratch the mess outta the tank. Well accept for the "Luggage Locker".

I used to allways ride with a Bungy Web across the rear seat and I loved it. I could just cram whateer I was carrying under that and be on my way. But now I allmost allway ride with the hump on so that's not really an option.
