Review: Larga Commuter

I had the chance to test the prototype of Larga's new commuter pack. It's a roll-up bag with 2 major pockets for your clothes, laptop, or shoes and one smaller pocket for smaller items. The material for the major pockets are fairly lightweight and I love the double zippers. Unfortunately, they aren't waterproof.

Review: Larga bags

One major consideration when planning a bike tour is choosing what bag to bring. If you were to look at bike touring blogs and cycling specific online shops, there is a huge range of options to choose from: rear and front racks with panniers, frame bags, saddlebags, handlebar bags, bike trailers, etc. etc. Time and location are two major factors when choosing the right bag. Traveling a remote area over a period of several months would usually mean carrying more things than a highly populated week-long trip.
