If after a hard day's ride, the end of the trail is still blissfully unknown then you share our 'single-track' mind. This spirit of adventure is captured by the versatility of Osprey's Escapist 32.
Whether you're riding 100+ miles or commuting to work, the AirScape™ backpanel provides you with complete ventilation and support.
Decided that today you're going to tackle some downhill? When you're thrashing those fast descents you'll appreciate how the Biostretch™ hipbelt and harness keep the pack cinched comfortably to your back. The Escapist's twin zippered hipbelt pockets mean you can quickly grab trail essentials on the go and firmly attach your helmet with Lidlock™. Keep your phone and sunglasses to hand with the scratch-free pockets in the harness and main compartment.
The best rides inevitably result in dirty gear, store it separately with the Escapist's internal zipped divider. Keeping yourself hydrated when riding hard is absolutely key, with quick access to the external hydration sleeve you can easily refill your reservoir.
When you're out riding over multiple days, you'll need to carry enough kit. InsideOut™ compression and PowerMesh™ stretch pockets allow you to securely transport all your gear no matter how rutted the track you're riding gets. An internal organiser means you can easily sort your tools, spares and pumps. Even when the weather turns for the worst, the built in high visibility raincover deploys quickly to protect your pack and all of your gear. Keep yourself visible in low light with reflective graphics and blinker light attachment.

Spacious and versatile backpack for cycling. I use it myself on business trips and it can fit a change of clothes in addition to the laptop. You could use this for a longer trip. The backpack comes with a rain cover, which is yellow in color and is visible even in the dark.
I've had this model of Osprey before, for almost 7 years, and now bought a bit updated version as I understood, at least by colours (black-dark green instead of black). For some reason this new version feels smaller even though both, my old one and new backpack say "Osprey 32" so the new one should be 32 liters as well. Even comparing them side by side, the new backpack looks a bit smaller. Otherwise, same good quality. The only thing I was disappointed about in this model is that in few years the stretchy pockets get overstretched, ripped and ugly. I even wrote a feedback about this issue to Osprey, but they didn't really seem to care enough to change the material of the pockets to more durable one.

Very good backpack! Gets to sit really firmly on the back with versatile straps and sits well on the back anyway and is not sweating against the back. Versatile pockets and compartmentation make operation smooth. Rain cover and mesh pockets on the sides and top crown the whole. The only small minus pocket on the strap, apparently designed for the phone, that doesn’t fit half of any of the phones today.
I would definitely recommend getting this backpack if you need this type of backpack.
