It all depends on your type of commute and what you need when you get to work! Messenger bags tend to be more streamlined so ideal if you have minimal amounts to carry but they are worn across the body so can be harder to keep in place or out of the way. For total peace of mind for a secure bag as well as sufficient, protected space for your tech, your wallet and even your lunch, then we recommend you opt for a cycling-specific rucksack.
