Love this bag

I bought this to replace a roller bag. I travel to Germany for business regularly and this bag has changed how easy that is. If anyone has ever travelled to Europe you know it is not very easy getting around with a roller bag as there is rarely escalators or smooth streets/wide sidewalks. I would highly recommend this bag to anyone.
I commute via bicycle 6miles each way to work. This holds everything I need. iPad, change of clothes, shoes, camera cube w fuji body and 3 lenses. Toiletries, a million dongles. I use the straps on the back to tie up my U-lock. The bag is comfortable for up to around 20 mile rides. Well made and incredibly useful features. Customer for life.
Just come back from 3 weeks in Europe with just this bag. It was a pleasure to carry and use. Love all the organisation, the multiple ways to access and all the carry options. There was plenty of room for all my clothes and tech ... weight restrictions were the limitation not size. Loved using the packing cubes too. My only slight criticism is the empty weight at 2KG, but happy to live with this for the features that come with it.
I have had this bag since the kickstarter launch and it has become an indesspensible part of my gear. I rotate through two small camera cubes and the medium cube. Each cube is stocked for different types of shoots and I rotate them based on what I need to bring with me. The back has come with me on all my local shoots and is great to throw open and grabbing the gear I need. It is comfortable and built very well. I have traveled internationally with it with no problems in planes, trains, or busses. The secure zippers are awesome. I usually bring a small camera cube an the medium travel pack with the tech pouch. Incredible product.
This bag is absolutely amazing. It is so versatile with the camera cube system. No matter how much gear you have, or if your kit is growing, this is the best bag you can get. It is quite expensive but it is 100% worth every penny!
I've been stumbling along dozens of review but nothing as having this masterpiece on your hands! I even saw some criticism and honestly I don't know what these guys smoke! :D No need to speak about the features , the material and the space you will notice instantaneously that you paid for the top! Looking forward to receive the accessories and use the Backpack for my trip to Mexico! This is like when you buy a Mac in the beginning it hurts because of the price but then you forgot about it because you just bought something that will stand for years and it's really amazing even if is just a backpack ! The Backpack! Just a little remark: I would say that just the straps would have deserved to be a little bit more padded and soft. Great Job PD, Congrats!
I've had the Travel Backpack for close to one month now and it's hands down the most organised large volume backpack I've owned thus far. It takes awhile to get into the habit of knowing which pocket stores what but once you go past that, it'll be a joy to carry.
One thing I hope can improve in future iterations would be the back support. It'll also be a bonus if the sternum strap had a magnetic closure.
