In Gear: Kriega R25 V2 Backpack Review
A time-tested favorite gets a roll-top redesign
After using the original Kriega R25 backpack for more than a decade commuting, touring, and even having a slide down the road with it, when I heard a V2 was on the way, naturally my ears perked up. The new version stays true to the original with tough materials, thoughtful design, and the classic quadlock clasp system. While it’s largely the same as its predecessor, the waterproof roll-top design changes the day-to-day experience of using the R25 V2. Pour yourself a cuppa’ and follow along as we break down the Brit’s latest backpack from Kriega.
