Kappa WA402S £70.15

This well-finished tarpaulin bag can double as a rollbag-type tailpack, if the rigid back is Velcro’d off and the straps removed. This Velcro fixing also gives it a height-adjustable waist belt. It takes plenty of kit and is great on the bike when full, but the lack of load-adjusting straps means weight shifts around a little when it’s half full. The ends of the chest belt flap about, too. It is very comfortable though, totally dry and clearly built to last.
