I got up this Saturday and knocked it out, the slightest microadjustment is all it took to return the chain to the appropriate tension. W.P. and Lil NI were both still in bed, Chubby Brown was at his Biological fathers house and Kai Tai was with Grandman. I figured I just fixed the chain, why dont I take this Machine of Fixed Fury for a spin down to the store, pick up some food, and surprise the clan with breakfast.
Since my weekends Bikepacking voyage had to be postponed I was anxious to test my new bag. I am trying to find more room in packs, without spending too much money and at the same time saving weight. Seemed like the Osprey was the approrpriate bag to test.
I like my Ergon packs, but for the room I need for the Great Divide Race, I would have to spend 200 dollars. This pack was on sale for 70 bucks. SOLD.
So here I got a pack to test and a much needed trip to the store. So I went for it, picked up all the food I needed and packed it all neatly and comfortably in the Osprey pack. If I expect this sucker to assist me in covering the length of the Unitest States, it definetely needs to be able to get me to the store and back and still deliver tons of room.
Deliver it did. Check the pics!
Breakfast was excellent by the way!
Enjoy,
Laters,

PS: Im searching for an even better set of single speed cranks, Contact me if you got something.

The bag looks small and no back support. How is compared to the ergon ? How many eggs did you break?
It actually does have some sort of foam padding for back support. fully loaded with groceries it performed great. offers way more room than the Ergon BD2. Zero eggs were broken on the test. So far an amazingly versatile pack. To get comparable room I would of had to purchase the BC3 which is 200 bucks, this pack was 70 bucks on sale.
And who told you about the Talon? At least you could've bought a different color than mine. Although the other colors are just as horrible. LOL
I have an Osprey Kestrel 48. Not for riding really, more for hiking, but I use it to commute now and then. Osprey has good quality stuff.
