What backpacks are you using?
Looking for a backpack priced decently w/ a helmet carrier and quick release shoulder connection for ease of use. I saw the charger backpack by a* but it's 140.

I have the Alpinestars Nightstar backpack, in (you guessed it) black.
But it's pretty much a regular backpack with a bunch of little pockets...useful, but not for what it costs.

Re: What backpacks are you using?
Whatup Khoi,
I'm rocking the Icon Urban Tank Bag. I can fit my helmet inside the bag but it also has a helmet carrier built in...it's that extra flap at the bottom of the bag that folds out to hold a helmet.
Usually, Icon stuff is crap and but this bag of fair quality and has held up so far. However, I got mine for around 80 bucks IIRC. Anyway, the 110 listed on the site seems a bit on the expensive side to me.

For Christmas, I got an Icon Urban Tank bag, like above, that converts into a backpack with helmet carrier. I asked for it because it came highly recommended by many other riders.

I have a cortech backpack, can't remember the model name. Has a pouch that flips out and some straps that can carry a helmet. I have found that such an arriangement can cause you 'lid to get banged into doors and like when you walkinng around. I just carry it now.

$5 dollar war-mart bag ftl. It doesn't really count as a bag until you've had to duct tape the bottom closed...
It helps to have these, too -

Re: What backpacks are you using?
if you have trouble getting your pack off then you need one of these

I use the R25 and what a difference it make getting it on and off your back. It fit fine with a hump jacket and its like the pack is not even on your back.
