The Radial 26 is a unisex commuter bag designed specifically for cyclists. The bag features Osprey’s latest AirSpeed technology which uses a trampoline style suspended mesh that allows air to circulate between your back and bag when out on the road.
Osprey say this is for commuting in hot and humid conditions but if you are like me and get a sweat on when cycling up anything over a 2% gradient the cooling element comes more than welcome. As we have come to expect from Osprey, the Radial 26 is absolutely jam packed with special features and here is a run-down on some of its best:
- Ventilated stretch yoke and load lifters shoulder straps to you and me
- Ultra-light and comfortable with lots of ventilation holes to keep your skin breathing
- Padded laptop and tablet sleeve that rest comfortable on your back
- Internal & external organiser’s and pockets for bike specific tools, spares, paperwork, sunglasses and documents.
There is room for absolutely everything in this bag. Furthermore, there’s a high-vis rain cover stowed in the bottom, a LidLock bike helmet attachment, LED light attachment points and extra reflective details. An emergency whistle is attached on the sternum strap which is a nice touch but difficult to reach unless unclipped. One last cool feature that is deserving of a mention is the integrated kickstand. The kickstand allows you to put your bag down whilst putting on you helmet or undoing your bike lock- it is designed to stay up right so only the bottom of the bag is in contact with the ground.
Overall, I found the Radial 26 to be the perfect cycling bag and without it pedalling for you I’m not sure you could find better. RRP £110
