It’s Fanny Pack Not a Backpack

Have a Quatrevelo also a trike and touring bikes I use this bag to small battery for my Quatrevelo powers all lights have two handed bar headlights, 3 red flashing lights really good ones for my trike and dog trailer. And other stuff for cycling it’s like a handlebar bike bag only it’s a fanny pack I place in my, Quatrevelo on battery mount plate side of my trike and into a pannier of my touring bike and trike I can buckle it around my waist and ware my medium size backpack as combo. I’m considering a second so I have two one on each side of trike.

great for a day out

We use this as a family bag for 2 people and our dog on neighborhood walks and short hikes. Fits everything we need for us to have water, food, sunscreen, and extras for everyone! Sometimes we even put our layers in it too. We like the waist strap and the shoulder crossover strap for extra support. One of us is tall and the other is short and we both find it comfortable to carry for long stints.

Too small for hikes

The body of this pack is much smaller than I expected, and my measurements of the dimensions are significantly less than those on the website. The exterior straps are not convenient for strapping on a jacket. The upper back is also quite firm and digs into my back. I'll be returning it.

A Good Fanny Pack

This pack is of good quality, however, not advertised well. There is no world in which this is a 5 liter bag. Good for a night out for a show, but barely fits a water filter & 1L bottle. I will probably keep it, but for a back country day bag it’s WAY too small.

great day pack

Both me and my partner love this pack. It is comfortable and it holds the perfect amount for the family. We use it to carry water for us and our dog, and even a bottle for our baby, can fit a small jacket, phones, keys, snacks… :) We went to REI and tried all the packs and this one was our favorite because it is comfortable for both of us and has good adjustability and capacity. Would recommend for walking and hiking, but not for running.

It’s ok but small

It’s actually cute and looks sturdy—but it’s not 5 liters in my judgment! And the bottle holders are small. If that’s all you need then I’d buy but I need to carry regular bottles say 20 oz and also need the 5 liter size
