Pardon my curiosity. The Surly Big Dummy has the capability of hauling 400 pounds [rider + cargo]. Why do you need a backpack? Don't they come with the xtra-cycle bags? These Big Dummys are monsters. If I had the room I would own one, but I'd have to get rid of either my refrigerator or the bathtub.
