Road Sack 2009 AUS - Motorcycle and Cycling Backpack / Rucksack / Backpacks and Features

Well I had the pleasure to test one of these yesterday (thanks Cozza

) and I can't believe how bloody comfortable it was.

I have carried ordinary backpacks in the past, but often found then didn't sit well in the lower back area, tending to dig in and be uncomfortable.

I also have a motorcyclist specific hydra pack with inbuilt back pack, and even had problems with that, mainly the weight shifting when going through twisities.

After trying the Road Sack yesterday, I am a convert and they are definitely worth every cent.

With the flexible back insert it guarantees that nothing is going to dig in to your back and is so ergonomically friendly you don't even notice you have it on, without any weight transference of the contents. It also has the ability to have a water bladder inserted.

The high visibility is a bonus, and it is an Australian owned and made product.

I'm definitely sold on this product, so Cozza is not getting it back now

Hi All,

This is Eric from Road Sack.

Thank you for the fantastic feedback, I honestly had no idea about this thread until I stumbled across it not 5 minutes ago. We're extremely happy to hear the positive comments and that the product is performing exactly as it's designed to.

To avoid this thread sounding like a 'paid-for' thread I won't participate too much in selling or convincing you guys on how great it is (I'll let you guys do that for me

) but I will answer questions if anyone has any about the Road Sack.

PS: It's designed in Australia but unfortunately not made in Australia. We couldn't find a local manufacturer that could produce the backpack to the standard we wanted.

Eric
