Pondering a new backpack as the one I use is wearing out, and wondering about one of these as I really like the reflectivity when I see people in the jackets.
Any users on here? How's the fit on the bike? How waterproof? Any better value alternatives?
Thanks in advance
I had one a few years ago
It was sh1t3
The waterproofing inside all peeled away in about 5 rides
I got a Howie's one with the pull over cover with the big arrow on now. It's bombproof
Well, thanks for the honesty!
Buy a good pack and then add a reflective and/or waterproof cover instead.
I’ve been using this LOMO waterproof one for a few years now.

Really good. 100% waterproof. Has a not 100% waterproof pocket at the back for stuff you need to hand. Great price too. They do a high viz version but doesn’t have the external pocket, otherwise it’d be perfect.
I found the Lomo site earlier - how reflective is that one? The pack billed as the cycling one seems to sit very high and I thought might catch a helmet on a bike
Add a hump to your pack of choice

20l, IP66 waterproof, hiviz, reflective, light loop, internal & external pockets, & comfy. Seems a pretty heavy duty build.
