A great pack
The backpack looks great and has some rider specific functions that are really useful. Like another reviewer said the pack is much heavier than you would think, but I don't know that it affects anything, It doesn't bother me. There is plenty of space and the inner pockets are well placed and well designed. What another reviewer said about what you can fit (laptop, gym clothes "shoes, shorts, shirt" and water bottle & protein shaker along with lunch for work would about fill this pack up but what more do you need to take with you.The pack is a little difficult to get on, having the chest sleeve for i.d. and whatnot attached helps me find the strap and makes it a bit easier. without it it may be a little difficult to get a hold of the left strap to pull over your shoulder to hook the clasp. And like another reviewer pointed out that clasp being plastic may put its durability into question... time will tell. Overall its a great pack, priced a little high for what it is in my opinion but I am happy with my purchase.

Awesome backpack
This is a great backpack. Very comfortable and well designed. I like the shoulder strap that you can disconnect for easy on and off. It's a bit smaller in real life than what it looks in the video but It is plenty big enough for a change of clothes, laptop, packed lunch and everything else you might need for a day at work with room to spare

Nice backpack with a few flaws.
I like this backpack but it does have a few flaws that someone looking at it should be aware of:
1) The bag's storage space is small even when the bag is extended. You are probably looking at fitting a pair of gym shoes and light weight gym clothes in the bag along with a few accessories not much else.
2) The bag is much heavier than other standard back packs I've used. This could be due to the fabric,the rubber, the helmet carrier or the rain cover but it's not as light weight as one would expect of a bag this size.
3) The quick disconnect makes getting the bag off easy, but getting the bag on is difficult. In my opinion the quick disconnect isn't positioned well enough that you could put the bag on while disconnected and then connect it which would be my ideal.
4) I wish the quick disconnect was made of metal instead of plastic, I have some concerns about the disconnects long term durability.

Absolutely amazing
I love this bag. Feels very comfortable, has a lot of space and overall just a great bag. Use this to get to school and work. It's perfect.

Poor quality product
After spending lots of time researching bike specific packs I settled on the tech aero. I only ever used standard backpacks in the past and thought I would spring for a top quality pack. What a disappointment! Every zipper on the pack has broken after about 6 rides and one of the plastic buckles that hold the tail of the shoulder straps cracked in half. Biggest waste of money ever. Absolute rubbish product.

With all the rain we are currently getting I still have not had to use the raincoat excellent.
It is very waterproof even without the extra pull out raincoat which is important and very good. Fits and sits well and holds all that I need very good item and worth the money.

COOL FEATURES
If you are the type of individual who likes features and cool buttons to push then this is the bag for you! I am that kind of person thats why i like this bag! I also like the hidden rain fly, it works well. I only wish there was an adjustment to lower the chest strap, having a 54" chest its almost choking me. So i use it without the strap. i also like that the bag expands, its like having two bags, but without having to transfer everything. it fits my size 6 Judo Gi like a glove. Even if this bag is almost choking me i would still buy another one. KJUDODAVE...

Beautiful and functional but a bit pricey
I initially bought the Rapid Transit Recon 19 bag but that thing was tiny. I needed a bag to be able to take my laptop to school and the Recon didn't cut it.
The Tech Aero Backpack is a well made bag with tons of great features. I love the helmet holder and is the best one I have seen thus far. I haven't had to use the rain cover yet but I think it will work just fine. While the bag doesn't hold nearly as much as I would like or need, it serves its purpose well.
The issue I have and will probably need to remedy by buying a tank bag, is that I have to chose b/t a change of clothes or my school materials. I didn't want to have to take a tank bag and backpack to school, but hanging out in my riding gear all day seems far less realistic than carrying around another bag all day.

Im searching for a backpack for using it daily with small books and normal stuff, and maybe carrying a 15.6" laptop when I need to travel with it.
Im really concerned about how good the waterproofing of this backpack is, since I pretend to carry a laptop inside Im not expecting any water to get in.

Answer:
This backpack is designed to fit most 15" laptops. The thickness of your laptop may determine whether or not it fits. Moreover, this bag is water resistant, not waterproof. We recommend that you use this backpack in conjunction with a dry-bag if you wish to ensure that your electronics remain water-free.1 month, 1 week ago

Which alpinestars back protectors can be used with this backpack?
Answers
Answer:
On the product page, Alpinestars states that the Alpinestars Bionic Back Protector is the intended option, however the shoulder straps and waist strap are not removable, making hits seem rather bulky. Alternative options would be the Alpinestars Bionic Race Back Protector, which only has a waist strap, or the Alpinestars Bionic Air Back Protector, which is an insert.Products related to my answer

Your HTC phone will not fit in the Alpinestars Tech Aero shoulder strap pocket because it is too small.We would recommend you to look at any Kriega backpack, and get the additional Kriega Kube Pocket, which should allow you to fit any type of phone.

I just bought the Astars MX-1 jacket. The race hump on my jacket isnt huge but still, would this back pack be able to hang low enough to sit a little below the hump? Other generic backpacks with no chest straps work with my jacket because I can hang them pretty low, but I am really wanting to buy a real riding backpack and this one seems awesome if it would work.

Answers
Answer:
In general, jackets with a race hump make it difficultto use a backpack. This is especially true with motorcycle backpacks since they are designed to sit right behind the shoulder blades (thus providing a better feeling of balance while riding). Additionally, the race hump on the MX-1 is not overly large, however it is not terribly small either. Ultimately, we do not feel that you would be able to use this backpack comfortably with your current jacket.11 months ago
Answer:
With the strap fastened, this backpack sits really high so it will definitely touch your race hump regardless how big it is.8 months ago
