WTB: Alpinestars Tech Aero Backpack

Hey guys,

i have done some online research for the alpinestars tech aero backpack and all the reviews have been pretty good

i was just wondering if any of you have this backpack and what your thoughts are?

the price is steep, averaging 170 CDN for this badboy

Hey,
I have this bag and so far so good. The main zipper gets stuck at one point sometimes though. Dont know if its just my bag or the design. Its fairly waterproof and if it starts to pour, you can pull out the rain baggy. There is a slot for a back protector which i dont really see necessary as the bag is kinda stiff. Also, i find that most of the inside pockets are kinda useless except or the laptop segment. Could be cheaper, but im happy with it.

Durability 10
Quality 9.5
Design 10
Comfort 9
Price 8

thanks a lot man

i appreciate the feedback. will most likely be picking this badboy up.

i was also looking at the kriega r25 as they are in the same price range and the kriega does look a little more comfortable but does not have the rain baggy feature as well as the helmet holder feature

im most likely guna get the A*
