Looking at getting a new bag, currently use a dakine not intended for cycling and ventilation for the back whilst riding is very poor.

Camelbak bags seem to get very good reviews but are there others???

    How much do you want to carry?

    Always remember to pick your Uni according to the local trails or you'll be stuck with nowhere to ride for three years!

    There are others, with the larger packs I'd look outside of the mountaine bike world. Climbing packs tend to work well on a bike if you need to carry more

    the freeflow are good packs
    last time I was buying a pack I looked at the vango force ten (not sure if they still make that) which was good
