Great Pack for Biking

Rating:****
I use this for commuting purposes, for which I think it is too small (although the ability to expand the bag helps a little). I really like the bag--lightweight, great ventilation, hydration system, included rain cover.
My main problem is the bag is a touch too small. It is really designed to swallow clothes and other larger items, not small accessories you may need while commuting. The small accessory pocket on the front is too small for anything except your keys and a bit of change--a wallet is not easily going to fit--there is only one zipper there as well which can cause a bit of a problem when you remove the bag from one shoulder to quickly search for keys or change. If you put your phone or iPod on top of your clothes or whatever is in the bag you risk the phone or iPod dumping out when you forget it is there thanks to the main zipper being placed at a strange angle on top.
Overall, a great bag, just know what you need it for.
