PIONEER 9 MOUNTAIN BIKING PACK TESTED AND COMPARED

By Chris Daniels

The Pioneer is likely the most durable pack I tested. With additional straps purchased separately, this bag can be mounted to handlebars, worn across the chest, or around the waist. North St. offers the Pioneer in no less than 16 colors and it’s made in the U.S.A. If I carried agua on my frame, this would be my bag of choice. Just make sure to throw in a small hand towel to absorb the rattle of a less-than-full load.

“The North St. The Weekender Backpack checks all the boxes for me and is one of my favorite backpacks for most trips in the five-plus day category,” writes Zeke Kamm. “I LOVE the visual style of the bag and if I had to bring a bunch of stuff around with me to work or school, this would be my top pick for best everyday bag, too.”
