i'm thinking of getting a pannier-backpack to use to commute to school next semester. it's a steady 45 minute ride on a country road with rolling hills, and i prefer not to have to carry the million pounds of books on my back the whole way. but i need a pack i can use to carry it around campus for classes. anyone use any of these? any thoughts?
i know the arkel https://www.arkel-od.com/us/all-categories/laptop-bicycle-pannier/bug-cummuting-bag.html
is better, but the nashbar

is cheaper.
others i should consider?
