Capacity: 18 litres

This is a typically pricey offering from premium brand Rapha.

Quality costs though, and this is decent-sized bag with plenty of pockets for a laptop (up to 15in), phone, wallet, keys etc, all sealed against the elements with waterproof zips. The reflective dots provide night-time visibility, and there is provision for a hydration bladder.

This comfy pack is secured with waist and chest straps.

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.
