Fortnine probably told Ryan enough with the overly cinematic zen philosophizing, you're supposed to be marketing product! And Ryan said yeah, ok, fair enough, but I'm still going to make it better than top gear!

[@imagesbyraphael]

Yeah, that's why I watched this even though I'm not interested in a backpack.

[@SpottedCreeper]

+1000 for Kriega - their bags and tail packs are legendary. I've had the US-10 and US-20 for my bikes for years, and they're bulletproof. A couple of years back I accidentally caught one of the aluminium strap hooks in my car door and mangled it pretty badly. Emailed Kriega asking how much a spare one would be and they just sent me a new one, no charge, no problem - proper customer service and it wasn't even a fault with their equipment. Customer for life!

[@ThatCleanMT]

Yeah that’s one brand that is simply the best. I have had a few of them and just bought the Kriega X RSD collab bag. They’re expensive yes but they’re second to none. I don’t think I’ll ever buy another brand backpack for motorcycling.

[@podunkman2709]

[@jantomas4884]

I honestly expected someone to show up with the covert companion, whip out the comb pick and open the lock in 1 second

[@JeffNoel]

Bought my kriega r30 years ago on FortNine, rode for 50k km through snow and rain more often than sun and still use it almost daily when I go to work even though I don't have a bike anymore. They recently shipped me replacement tightening straps free of charge. Still honoring their 10 year warranty. All my stuff is always dry, the thing is super comfy and doesn't scratch tanks!

[@Avboden]

Yep my R20 was my daily bag for all of college riding and school. Lasted absolutely ages. Eventually the waterproofing wore out but that was the only issue it ever had. Absolutely worth the money.

[@bullgrim]

Another up-doot for the R30. Even when I'm not riding, it's my daily backpack for work, filled with 3+ laptops and pockets full of cables and tools. And with the dual chest clips, it's great for when you have to run across an airport .

[@Alexanderyhwong]

I appreciate Ryan’s honesty because for typical everyday use, my $15 Costco High Sierra backpack is fine. I even waterproof the inside by sticking vacuum sealed bags for electronics and laptops. Unless you have very specific needs, it’s just too expensive.

[@WontSeeReplies]

How can he bash whatever company this is for not providing an easily pickable lock? I’m with you, too. A cheap bag is enough.

[@paapali]

@@WontSeeReplies good point, except well, lock-picking isn't real. Yes, it's easy to do, but no, thieves don't do that. There are 50 easier ways to yoink the stuff than picking the lock, these include slashing the bag open, cutting the cable, using bolt cutters on the lock etc. A lock only prevents an opportunist, true, but it's not because they are easy to pick but because they are easy to bypass most of the time. Yes, a master lock is still a complete shitter.

[@Rourke-Slimer]

I've been running the Kriega trail 18 for the last year and absolutely love it. I've crashed off-road with it numerous times, and wear it on literally every ride and when I hose it off every once in a while it looks pretty much brand new. Not a single stitch out of place. It's comfortable, durable, waterproof and pretty much anything else you can think of. I really can't say enough good things about it. It's literally THE perfect backpack for riding.

[@andrewdugdale7043]

Did you land on your back on the rucksack when coming off? My concern with a rucksack is if it makes a crash worse on your spine due to the contents you may have in

[@Rourke-Slimer]

@@andrewdugdale7043 I wear either an armored jacket or compression fitting armor, so that definitely helps. That being said, I rolled about 60 ft down a hill with about 50 degree incline last summer and didn't feel like the bag made any difference. Maybe cushioned the fall of anything lol. I have found that it's really rare to fall flat on your back while riding. You'd have to be like falling from a really vertical jump or something. While riding with a backpack, all my crashes have been much more horizontal in nature.

[@roblepack]

I previously used cheap, non-motorcycle alternatives that I thought worked fine until I decided on a Milk (Klim) nap pak. My preferred bag now for many of the reasons covered in this video. Your ability to take drab subjects like this and turn them into entertaining quality and humour filled videos is second to none!

[@miklosmaraczi8807]

I can't recommend Kriega enough. As for backpacks, I use a Max 28 on and off the bike. I love how it takes a big laptop in the waterproof compartment while also taking a size M modular (!) helmet (expanded), gloves and knee protectors for worry-free time off the bike. Otherwise I use US20 and US40 tail bags and they never leaked. Top quality stuff.

[@PUcmw11]

Can't call it a best without getting Velomacci in the mix! I've been rocking the Velomacci Speedway 28L for the last 5yrs and it's the most bombproof/waterproof overbuilt pack I've ever purchased. Definitely give them a shot next time! They're pricey, but their strap system is SO comfortable, and whether the pack is empty or loaded down with 40lbs of tools, it loads and handles perfectly. The warranty is ultra strong too. I'd buy again in a heartbeat. 5yrs later and it looks exactly like the day I bought it and I ride with it every day.

[@rodryk5605]

+1 for Kriega. Have a R30 for years. I've even went sliding with her once. Good as new!

[@michaelhoward142]

The ONLY sign of wear on my 13-year-old R30 is the embroidered name tag on the carrying handle, which has become frayed and is coming off. Everything else looks pretty much new despite taking a 30 mph slide once when I forgot to strap it down on my passenger seat.

[@harrier331]

Seconded for the R25, Had it for 5 years and still looks practically new. If I were to get another backpack it would definitely be another one of these.

[@yuramatyash7981]

Personally I think that as long as you drive at legal speeds and or don't have a sports bike, just about any bag will work. I ride a cruiser and use my old high school backpack and it works just fine. And for these prices, I feel good sticking with my old school bag. Great video though, I enjoyed watching!

[@someguy5035]

Great comment. So many solutions out there for far less money.

[@smartyuno]

These are for like, ADV riding which is 1: why theyre priced for retired dentists and 2: why stuff like the straps and waterproofing are dwelled upon, because your old backpack probably lacks those things

[@MisterOcclusion]

Same here, save that the panniers and top case on the GS holds most anything I need, and I still have room to ROK strap a dry bag or Superstore plastic tub behind me if I need more space

[@Morlabon]

Gonna say, in germany it can happen that it starts to rain. I also used my old school backpack but my laptop was in there. Had to cover it with my rain jacket and arrive wet in my workplace. Since then i use a waterproof backpack for 25 Bucks on Amazon.

[@yuramatyash7981]

@@smartyuno I just don't see how they're better than any backpack for ADV riding. As for waterproofing, hell yeah that's a great point. Me personally, I bought this waterproof cover, cost like less than 10$ on aliexpress years ago. It's quite neat, you put your backpack inside the cover and it has it's own straps, so you literally wear it as a backpack on it's own. I guess that if you have the money to spend, sure why not. There's nothing wrong with wanting fancy things.

[@StillOnTheRun]

My 50$ canvas bag with 2 side pockets large enough for a 1L water bottle each, 2 front pockets large enough for snacks, large main compartment large enough for a 17" laptop, laptop sleve, 3-4 notebooks.

Re: the comments about hi vis options… It’s not mentioned in the video (and the one Ryan demos is all black), but you can get the Kriega T18 in either a bright orange or neon green back panel. I have the orange one, and with the black honeycomb webbing over it, it looks great. I really like my T18, aside from the price.

[@adam346]

Klim tec pack is actually perfect.. need to stop at the grocery store but don't feel like going home first to switch out to the car? You can squeeze whatever you can't get into your saddles/top box into your pack. I have been doing grocery runs with a 30L backpack on a bicycle so cutting it down to a roughly 20L bag and a top-box is about the same. I mostly live alone so I don't really do large shops as it is... + the chest protection + the steel cable to strap you helmet/pack to the bike... throw in a few tiny locks for any major pouches and you have a secure little pack... I am absolutely buying one.

As someone that loves having a backpack around at all times, I have to recommend Osprey and even though I despise the crowd that 5.11 attracts, they also do make some awesome packs. Have been using both daily for work, hiking, camping, mtb and riding for 7 years now, same exact ones.

[@4sstylz]

I have a waterproof messenger bag for 20 bucks. I find it better than any of theses option for multiples reasons : - You don't want any small compartment, you will prefer a big compartment that offer flexibility. - You don't want any rigidity thing that take more place in the actual bag that compartment. - You don't fill entirely a bag, you don't want it to take a lot of space. You want it slim, to go watch a movie or at a restaurant etc. The only thing I miss are some thin strap with holder to strap it to the seat. That's all.

I have to give my vote to kriega. I had the zip toggle break on my 2018 r35 backpack this year. I sent it back thinking they would replace the zip under warranty. 1 week later they gave me a brand new bag. I don't know of any other company which would do that

Get pretty much all of these features, but from brands that actually compete with each other thus driving prices down. Personal favorite would be Dakine. Proper equipment at proper price. First step to buying a proper motorcycle backpack, is to filter out all of the bags that say "for motorcycling" on them.

[@FSXgta]

dont use ear buds that passively dampen noise, in other words you should use a speaker in the helmet or on the bike

My preference? A cheap rigid-shell backpack in a race-hump style. One compartment with inner pockets for stuff you need to find quickly. The zip is on the inside next to your back, making it highly water-resistant. Not guaranteed water-proof, but if I need that, I can stick a cheap roll-top bag inside. 25 litres, so not so small as to be useless, not so big that you regret having on your back. Anything bigger goes in panniers or gets strapped to the bike. The rigid shell means it won't flap and flutter at speed. Mine does 90% of what any of these do for about 10% the cost.

Mosko Moto’s Wildcat is also a good one but they sell directly so I’m guessing that might be the reason they were not included. I used a Dakine MTB bag for a long time and just got the Wildcat. It’s top notch but expensive

A Master padlock? "This is the Lockpicking Lawyer, an today we're going to take Ryan's pack, but leave him this silly lock as a memento!"

[@Maattttheww]

99% of thieves will still cut the cable before they even look at the lock. This whole lock setup is just meant to be a mild inconvenience

[@SoloPilot6]

@@Maattttheww It's easier to pick a Master padlock than to cut the cable. Seriously.

[@Maattttheww]

@@SoloPilot6 you would still need some amount of skill, and special tools. Unlikely somebody walking by would have a lock picking set. The little snips Ryan has in the video should be able to cut through that braided cable in about 30 seconds (you just cut a few strands at a time).

[@SoloPilot6]

@@Maattttheww Uh . . .you don't have a lock picking set? Master padlocks just need a comb pick, and are open in about three seconds. These cost about two bucks (or make one in 5 minutes)and go nicely on a keyring.

[@Maattttheww]

@@SoloPilot6 I don’t, I just have a pair of snips 😉. JK. Anyways, I think we both missed the point here. It’s a bag, you can also cut the cable off with some scissors. At the end of the day this whole solution provides basically zero security no matter what lock or cable you put on it.

I love videos about cool, super-functional motorcycling rucksacks. They give me informed choices for the rucksacks I’ll be buying in my next life when I won’t have my Kriega R25 (commuting for 15 years) or my Kriega trail with water pouch & tube (enduro for 8 years). Neither shows any sign of giving up anytime soon. 😆

This guy is really great on anything he produces which is so refreshing! But I prefer the vast outdoor riding videos over product reviews.

[@spydey2k]

These bags are quite a bit of overkill... Been using the Ogio No Drag series for 10 years with zero issues. I even use it when I'm not out riding.

[@froooty3309]

ogio no drags are like atleast $100, the new ones are over $200 lol

[@Theonixco]

Second for the Ogio's "turtle shells" I like how they also have a fair amount of reflective material on them

[@musique2005]

Can’t decide if it’s just the best motorcycle channel on the KZbin or one that is most hilarious one at the same time :). Didn’t think I will care about backpacks for my rides and yet I do now!

I don't see a single comment about 1:33 and that needed to change

[@jthebk3864]

I'd say for anyone who can't afford a specialty bag or just wants a budget do all bag that's not necessary moto focused. Go tactical, 5.11, hazard 4, and maxpedition all make great low cost high quality tactical bags. If you pack very light for commuting a sling bag is great and usually pretty cool looking. If you're going on an adventure then go with an "assault pack" or "72 hour pack" they usually have decent features and lots of loops to hook things to and help fasten the bag to your bike when you want it off body.

[@trevorcliffotd9278]

I use an old canvas rucksack with a plastic bag if it rains, it cost me about £10, honestly you guys have more money than sense..

[@michealkaplan1942]

Ok

[@cuntface6443]

I feel like almost every line of this video was engaging/ entertaining. And it's a video... about backpacks. Also, legitimately gasped when you threw the laptop. Well played.

[@ef7388]

How do I give 2 thumbs up...? Let me rephrase that...

[@magnusthereddidnithingwrong]

I still swear by the Ogio Dakar bag F9 recommended years ago. Small and light backpack with a foil-lined pocket for the included 3L water pack. From personal experience, it kept a full bag of ice water cold in the Florida summer sun for a full 2 hours until it ran dry. Having cold water on tap *while riding* makes a world of difference for your stamina in the heat.
