Whether you’re an all-weather commuter or an urban trendy, read on to get the sack

Capacity: 27 litres

This messenger-style bag is somewhat of a design classic with its big, reflective and distinctive chevrons showing passing traffic where to go.

It's spacious inside, with pockets for a laptop as well as various key/wallet pouches.

Construction feels solid and the bag is comfortable and secured with adjustable padded shoulder and waist straps. A great, safe commuting bag.

Verdict

Cycling Active Recommended!

The Rapha LARGE Backpack (cost actually £125) is the one reviewed. It has been in use by me 4 days a week for nearly a year now and it is superb. Really tough cordura which is extremely waterproof and the reflective dots really work for the daily commute. Great amount of space and keeps my laptop safe and sound. Comfortable it certainly is, too. I recommend it unequivocally. It might seem pricey, but sometimes quality simply costs a little more.
