did a quick 10 mile ride around liberty state park and jersey city today with the tom bihn super ego on my back. in the bag was a u-lock, sweatshirt, some batteries, chargers, flashlight. i hit some real bumpy potholes and it was still comfy as hell with the Q-AM messenger strap buckled in.
i like it better than a backpack because it rides better and my upper back does not get sweaty.
