Ergon Backpack - BC Urban

Eco-friendly alternatives to the individual mobility by car, like bike and train, grow more and more common... especially in metropolitan areas. A backpack is the perfect companion for such an urban lifestyle. Style and functionality are key elements here, as for many commuters the backpack is part of their outfit. In our preliminary research we came to realize that no manufacturer puts the
right emphasis on a back-friendly, ergonomically-correct carrying system – despite the fact, that such urban utility packs often need to carry high loads. This is where the BC Urban comes into play, improving upon these deficits dramatically – and does so with plenty of style.

As known from Ergon, the torso length is 4-way adjustable and provides a perfect fit. The wide detachable hip belt transfers the load onto the hip and adds stability. Formable alloy rails inside the back plate allow for a very precise adjustment to the individual shape of your back. Its carrying comfort is so good, the BC Urban was warranted the seal of quality called “Campaign for Healthier Backs“ by the Association Forum Healthy Back – Better Living and Federal Association of German Back Schools

The pack‘s cover is bluesign® certified, water resistant and is made of 39 recycled 0,5 liters PET bottles. The main compartment is easily accessible trough the full-width roll-down closure. Additionally the BC Urban features a removable notebook pouch (up to 15“) and a useful Cargostrap (for carrying parcels) making it the perfect companion for the urban everyday life.

• 1 high-volume main compartment with an inside pocket
