Three Things Thursday? 3 Backpacks with spine protection

This might not be Three Things Thursday – it might be Tech Tuesday, or Whoop There’s New Kit Wednesday. Ideas welcome. But what this is, is a run through the features of some products with something in common.

This week, it’s back packs with built in spine protection. Two of them we’ve already reviewed, and one is hot off the boat and just hitting the shops.

Evoc Trail Pro 16

• Price: £199.99
• From: evocsports.com

Camelbak Chase Protector Vest

• Price: £136
• From: camelbak.co.uk

Osprey Raptor Pro

• Price: £190
• From: www.ospreyeurope.com

This is the first time Osprey has made a backpack with spine protector in it, and it’s only just hit the shops. Made from D30, it’s designed to protect your back while also carrying All The Things. Available in one size (18 litres) and one colour (black). Watch this space for the review.

Let us know what you think of this format, and what types of products and information you might like to see us run through like this.

More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments.
