yet another rucksack question

[runner]

Hi all
I am new to the forum and i'm sure it's been asked before but hope you don't mind me asking again I'm about to take delivery of a defy 1 in approx 3 weeks and i will be using a rucksack to commute to and from work. I shall be carrying shirt/socks/lunch and a few cycyling tops etc. I should therefore not need a big rucksack...what do you recommend? it needs to fit well to the body will little movement and the less sweat the better...thanks

Something here?
Or a courier-type bag here?

I bought a "Back to School" one from Asda for around £6. It has been through the mill and back and is fantastic VFM.

runner, are you trevtherev? If so, I've already replied to you on your other thread...

In case you are not, I recommend the DHB Elsted from wiggle, 10 or 30 litres, good reviews in cylcing plus for the 10l version.

Hi runner, I was going to post the same sort of question. Last night I looked around the net and really didnt want to buy anything too expensive as it was only going to serve a purpose of carrying my locks around and phone/wallet/odds n ends.

So found this:

Not bad price considering. Ordering mine now

Hope this helped

Bit late as you've already ordered something else... but I use a Lowe Alpine ruck sack with this feature... works for me, carrying pretty much what you intend to carry.

Just remember - rucksacks are like women's handbags! The bigger it is the more cr ap you'll end up lugging around in it!
