The bag is a beast!

Advantages: Strong, durable, roomy and compartmentalised
Disadvantages: None

This camelbak is a beast! I go mountain biking at least once a week plus I cycle to work on 3 or 4 days a week and this bag goes everywhere with me. It's big enough to carry (without the water bladder) a pair of trousers, a shirt, a tie, a pair of shoes, a waterproof jacket and my tools (bike pump, tyre levers, multi tool, 2 spare inner tubes and lube). EDIT ** I forgot to say, I can also fit a plastic freezer bag with a freezer block, sandwiches, ...
...on a weekday as well as a quite chunky 2 metre long cable lock.** On the weekend I normally carry the waterproof, the tools, a banana and some flapjack plus around 2 to 2.5 litres of water. On the weekend I usually use the compression staps to make the bag fit snuggly around everything but allowing it to be as small as possible. The bag has an mp3 player pocket, two side pockets, a front mesh expandable pocket, a tools pocket and a main compartment. ...

Review of CamelBak H.A.W.G 100oz

A good little bag..

Advantages: Compact, not too heavy, packs a lot in.
Disadvantages: Feels bulky if filled to the brim. Price is a little high.

I used the Tatonka Flightcase for a short trip to Amsterdam and found it really good for what I needed it for. I was on my trip for three days and had more than enough space in the pack for clothes, washbag and other sundries. The capacity of the pack is 40L which may not be ideal for long trips but for trips that last one or two weeks I dont think you'd have a problem. The obvious advantage is that the pack fits in hand luggage and it does with ...
...any problem with the pack but I would say that it did feel a little bulky sometimes even though it's not that big. It is also quite pricey although I have seen it getting cheaper on certain sites. I paid £60 for the pack. Other than that, it was more or less perfect and many people were amazed at just how much it held. Definately going to be using for my next trip. ...

Review of Tatonka Flight-Case

Great lightweight pack to cycle with

Advantages: Evabreathe technology stops your back sweating / lightweight / camelbak ready
Disadvantages: Only a small day sack so limited contents

I bought this about two months ago as my old day sack was just too big to cycle comfortably. Got a great price as the shop matched the website special price £34.99. I needed a camelbak and if i bought one i got a half price head torch (35 lumens) Great sack though very lightweight and the evabreathe straps and back make it a breeze to wear comfortably. I try to cycle to work most days and its just over a 10 miles round trip and my back doesnt ...
...frame makes it sit off your back whilst the evebreathe technology does its thing! With a camelbak in situ (coming out of a hole cleverly labelled H20) your good to go and no need for drinks bottles! The waist strap with the funky and easy to use bergbuckle fits great as does the elasticated upper chest strap. Another great feature of this sack is the rain cover that is situated in the bottom of the sack accessed by a zip. This silver, logo emblazoned ...

Review of Berghaus Freeflow 20 IV Daysack

Berghaus Munro

Review of Berghaus Munro

The daysack that allows your toddler more freedom!

Advantages: Allows your child more freedom, and also less moaning from boredom
Disadvantages: takes forever to get somewhere as my son still walks slowly

As my son is at the age where he just wants to be off exploring when we are out and about (instead of being content sitting in his pram or being held in our arms), I thought that this little bag would be a good buy. Attached to the bag is a rein, which keeps the little monster in check while also giving him the freedom he wants. It is for use between the ages of six months and four years. We got ours from John Lewis for a price of £13.95. Before ...
...one, but everywhere that sells them does so for roughly the same price. Fitting and use As with a normal rucksack, your child’s arms go through the shoulder straps. These can then be clipped together to prevent the straps slipping off the shoulders. The straps need to be tightened to a secure fit and the bag must always be central on your child’s back. Ensure that your little one is comfy at all times. The rein gets clipped onto a D ring located ...
