Rapid Transit Shrapnel Backpack - Black Purchaser Reviews

This backpack is awesome for motorcycling with! It holds as firm or as loose to you as you want it. lots of compartments that hold more than they look like they would. I love this pack and use it almost everyday. The quality is really good too, haven't had any issues with this bag.

Pros: I love this backpack. Smart design. Smart styling. I now have a full set of Rapid Transit luggage for my sport-bike after testing this product. Everything Rapid Transit makes is top notch quality. The included rain cover is a valued feature to have on a bag this size. This is the first backpack I've used on my bake that almost immediately disappears from my shoulders, like a great hiking backpack that becomes much lighter than it is in reality because of great ergonomics and weight distribution. The separate laptop pocket is the only one like it I've found anywhere and it is perfect. The pockets are brilliant and generously sized for todays electronics. I think the padding might be alien technology. It is thick and spacious which allows for natural ventilation, while being ultra comfortable. I originally wanted two of these and was disappointed the company I bought it from listed just one left, I liked the price so I snatched it up. The next day I checked back to authenticate the number left to find they still had one left. Huh? No problem, I found it cheaper elsewhere and bought all my luggage from them. Shop around, this great company's products are offered several places. Hint, the cheaper option had free shipping which lowered the total cost.Here nor There: It is a small to medium backpack. I find it the perfect size for motorcycling. I have bigger backpacks but they don't feel this natural on the bike. One for the rider and one for the passenger and we both fit nicely. She uses mine to hold onto, and she is more comfortable. The waist strap holds too much heat in on hot days, so I don't use it on those days, but the pack stays put even in hard cornering without it. The waist strap has way too much strapping for me, so I trimmed it and resewed the ends. This means it will fit almost anybody.Con: I can't find a tag anywhere on this product telling where it was made. I would love to find out this quality was produced in the great U.S.A. even though nothing is anymore. This does mean a great deal to me, but I wouldn't trade this bag if it weren't and an American made bag didn't fulfill my needs like this bag does.Final words: I love this backpack!

I dont usually write reviews but this one surprised me. I ride about 2 times a week and for some reason I hate things in my pockets. This bag is great for riding! Aerodynamically it is great with no blowing straps or anything annoying in hte wind. Has pockets for your phone and Ipod and everything else. Even has built in Earphone hole so you can keep you ipod in your bag and string your earphones up to your helmetCouldnt be happier!
