The girlfriend wants to get me a biking related present and I was thinking a new back pack thingy.
At the minute I'm using an old Dakine one I had for skiing but it's a little worse for wear.
Needs to have the whole and hooks for a camelback hose as at the minute it's tie wrapped on.
Budget is probably around £50.
Thanks guys and gals.

Give her a bit of the cash towards it, although you can get them about 20% off RRP anyway. It's one of the best things I've ever bought.

Blowfish - small and not flapping about when you're not carrying much stuff, big when you want it to be.

Hi,
thanks all, think im gonna go with the Evoc CC. Really like that Dakine too.
Always had Dakine for skiing too so know what im getting.
Hmmmmmm choices choices
Slightly more unusual but I really like my Deuter Speed Lite 20 which is RRP at 50. It is 20L and is light / simple (one big compartment) plus some compression straps and outer pockets. I prefer it to other ones as the single compartment means bigger builky items (such as I carry when skiing) are still easy to get in as opposed to having 20L of capacity composed of small 5l compartments.
