Is this comfortable for biking? I know there are Osprey backpacks for biking but this is the most affordable one and it seems lite for biking.

I have not worn it biking, so I have no idea. But it is comfortable walking around all day in Europe and is lightweight.

I ride with mine and it is very comfortable. I do sometimes not fasten the chest strap because it can "ride" up and get a little irritating. Hope this helps.

I have used it for hiking only, but I think it would be fine for biking. The water bottle holders are small, however, and it would be best to carry water some other way.

It is very comfy for biking. The side pockets are designed horribly though and any water bottle would fall out. There is a spot for a water bag though.

There are soon many ways to adjust this pack. I had a few tall friends try it on, and it felt comfortable for them. Even fully loaded. Plus you could always return it. I love this pack. I've had a few and this is the best!!

I don't recommend it. It is heavy, especially when it is filled. For biking I would use a camelbak style hydration system, it is good for frequent and small amount of water intake. It gets warm, for sure, and it is more troublesome to use (refill, cleaning etc). This thermos is good, if you combine it with a proper bag, like Maxpedition's Pigmy Falcon (you can bring two bottles), or Monsoon, also from Maxpedition.

Think of a full school backpack. Like one you would carry in high school. Also, the back and shoulder straps are padded. Its quite comfortable.

I don't believe it would work for biking' I think it would it wrong on the seat. Although I have not tried it biking myself. I hope this helps' good luck.

Yes, so far this air mattress has performed well on bikepacking trips. It seems pretty durable and iscomfortable. It provides plenty of cushioning.

I like it. Used it for my cross country bicycle trip with no problem. I was a lot more comfortable with it than I would have been without it.

No it does not. I would not recommend this bag for a hike. I like this bag because of the computer, camera and accessories aspects. But when it comes to having a more versatile backpack for biking and other outdoor activities, this is not your bag. Sorry.

I have never put it on as a pack so the padding looks good but I'm not sure how comfortable it is. I load so much into the pack (it is big) that I just drag it around on the wheels.

I will say - yes, this pack is too large for you, would not be comfortable. I am 5' 9", 170 pounds, regular build, and this pack feels bulky on me. I do hike with it only because it holds so much gear. The two smaller models do not easily handle long lenses.

Yes, it´s the right pack for you. With great capacity and confort when carrying lot of stuff in it, it has a hard cover in the contact area with your back that prevents any inconvenient when loading with things with different shapes that not necessary adapts the backpack.

In fact, I returned the belt pack because it could not accommodate my camera, Nikon D700 with grip. However, I do believe it would be quite comfortable for skiing. I'm not sure about biking because you're in a sitting position and I don't bike enough to answer. It's a great bag if your camera fits

I own this pack. I carry a highly compressible sleeping bag (Lafuma Lightway 45) hammock and fly, clothes, food and stove, as well as the water bag. It all fits fine. When I camp i don't carry everything under the sun though. I use this pack for bike camping as it is a good size for mountain biking. If your sleeping bag does not compress down very much you should skip this pack.

It is a pretty big pack. I usually do not wear anything when out riding, the only reason I got this pack is for patrol duties. I was surprised to see how roomie it is, you can store a lot of stuff in there. Downside is the added weight once it's full (not to mention the bladder is pretty big as well so it will add to that). So if you like riding light I would suggest getting something smaller. If you are looking into a lot of storage then this is a good choice. Considering your petite frame, I wouldn't recommend it (unless the main purpose would be a large haul capacity).

Its a good quality bag. I have mine strapped to my mountain bike and that has taken a lot of abuse. Recommend.

I love mine, but it depends more on personal fit, i.e., where your 'sit bones' are. This one is perfect for me, with the open design for the soft parts. It is very comfortable for the long rides.
