Dahon P8 - back pack
 
Hi there,

I am currently looking at the Dahon carry bag, Stow and el bolso for my daily commute.

Problem is that none of these options go on the back - ruck sack like. Ideally, I would like to walk hands free with folded bike on back?

Any suggestions?

Downtube sells a bag that has back straps. I own it, but I can't attest to it's durability on the long term as I don't use it much.

that is something you don't want to be carrying on your back. it's heavy and painful what with all those sticking metal parts. isn't a shoulder bag strap a better idea?

its a cool idea, and you might even see glossy pics here and there of people carrying their bike on their back..... I havent seen anybody ever trying it in real life

if you really want to do it.. find a backpacker store which has a sherpa looking alloy frame carrying backpack, strap your bike to that and you can carry it... without frame and solid platform ..in a soft bag .... forget it ...
