Osprey Packs Torque Courier Bag - 1200cu in - 2007 BCS

Item # OSP0124

The Osprey Torque Transit Computer Bag is an urban assault bag for travelers and commuters who don't want to mess around. Sleek and to the point, the Torque uses a padded shoulder strap and includes an optional hipbelt for secureiyt when you have to hoof it for some mileage. A 15-inch suspended laptop sleeve protects your computer against drops, and a water-resistant main opening keeps your stuff dry inside when you're wet and grumbling outside. The Torque sports a Thermoformed back panel that sits comfortably against your body. Dedicated pockets for water bottles and cell phone on either side of the bag make for a hydrated, connected trip.

Bottom Line:

The Osprey Torque Courier Bag puts the lock down on organization.

Unusable on a bicycle

By:
November 27, 2009

It just won't work if you're riding a bike.

Pros:
- it has this awesome rear zipper across the back edge that allows you to pull your laptop out really quickly at the airport and put it back in without having to unzip and mess up an entire bag.
- osprey design and construction, top notch as always- very water resistant

Cons:
it is absolutely not a messenger bag suitable for carrying across your bag on a bike. it's meant to hang off your side when you walk to the train station or across campus, whatever. if you try to use it like a normal messenger bag on a bike it feels like a giant shelf with one single point of contact. It's constantly swinging everywhere because it doesn't form to your back nor are the straps really designed to cinch to your body like a timbuk2 or chrome. this is one of the many messenger bags i've picked up, tried for a month, and eventually returned because the nice design and construction doesn't outweigh the complete usability failure.
